@@myrontaylor77, it's not just the wiring. The battery itself is not enclosed. The aluminum plates are energized, exposed, and fractions of an inch from each other. If anything conductive bridges those plates it's going to be bad. just dropping something like a car key, a coin, or a hand tool on it is going to send molten metal flying all over the place. That battery has enough amperage to vaporize any metal that causes a short very much like a welder, but all at once and uncontrolled. Obviously, anyone near that could end up with bad burns, missing limbs, eye damage, or just plain dead.

Limitless still uses a123. But most they have is 56ah retro, cyber 12k is like 45ah, so of course a 96ah headway outperforms, match the ah bank size and headway doesnt outperform. Headway is the weakest lithium for car audio.

Apparently, you're running a stock alternator? Stock alts dont charge hardly anything at idle. Something like 50 amps while an after market one will triple that. And at 1200 rpm be putting out full amps. Different lithium chemistry will result in different power curves. Say the headway is made to be work with a normal car charging system of 12.8- 14.4 volts while cmax needs 14.8-16.8 volts. Lot of guys with cmax run a seperate alternator system to get the 16.8 volts. Also looks like you had just 1 ground wire on the bank? Thats a good sized amp prob a 5k? Im running a 40AH different chemistry with stock alt on a 5k and it dips into the 12s pretty quick. Got another system with a 5k and a mechman 320 alt and it hardly moves the voltage.
