Accessories POWERCell: All Storm amplifiers can benefit from the addition of the POWERCell, an electrolytic capacitor module that integrates direct- ly to the amplifier through a docking station. The POWERCell delivers big power for transients faster than the vehicle’s electrical system. The POWERCell enables the Lightning Audio amplifiers to withstand the rigors of driving 2 ohm loads. FANModule: Keeping powerful amplifiers cool, especially into lower impedance, is the key function of the FANM

mounting locAtions The mounting location and position of your amplifier will have a great effect on its ability to dissipate the heat generated dur- ing normal operation To maximize the performance of your amplifier, care should be taken to ensure adequate ventilation. Trunk Mounting Mount the amplifier vertically this will provide the best cooling of the amplifier. Mounting the amplifier on the floor of the trunk will work but provides less cooling capability than vertical mounting. Mounting th

BAttery And ChArging Amplifiers will put an increased load on the vehicle's battery and charging system. We recommend checking your alternator and battery condition to ensure that the electrical system has enough capacity to handle the increased load of your stereo system. Stock electrical systems which are in good condition should be able to handle the extra load of any Lightning Audio amplifier without problems, although battery and alternator life can be reduced slightly. To maximize the pe

Using PAssiVe CrossoVers A passive crossover is a circuit that uses capacitors and/or coils and is placed on speaker leads between the amplifier and speaker. The crossover delegates a specific range of frequencies to the speaker for optimum driver performance. A crossover network can perform one of three functions: High-Pass (capacitors), Low-Pass (inductors or coils) and Bandpass (combina- tion of capacitor and coil). The most commonly used passive crossover networks are 6dB/octave systems. The

InstAllAtion • For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the car battery prior to beginning the installation Trunk Mounting Mounting the amplifier vertically on a surface will provide the best cooling for the amplifier. Passenger Compartment Mounting Mounting the amplifier in the passenger compartment will work as long as you provide a sufficient amount of air for the amplifier to cool itself. If you are going to mount the amplifier under the seat of the vehicle, you must have at least 1” (2
