capacitors to help start heavy load

Post by solarsam12345 » Tue Feb 24, 2015 4:05 pm

Hi, does anyone think for my small shed setup (50w solar, 46ah deep cycle battery) weather a car audio capacitor is worth buying to help start heavy loads or would it be a waste of money?

It depends on how long your wires are between the battery and the load. Yes it can certainly help if you put it closer to the load. I hope to get some myself one day
