After switching to my Prius and it not having much bass, I want to add an 8" sub with a 500 watt amp. I already have the sub / amp im just curious if Prius's can handle the juice being used to produce the bass. Or would it completely drain my battery in a couple months? I remember hearing / seeing something about a high output alternator but im not to familiar with stereo specifications. If anyone has any input on stereo mods / subs feel free to chip in! Any information helps, thank you!
welcome! iirc, it will kill your 12v. prius is only a maintainer, not really a charger. there is no alternator, the hybrid battery charges the 12v through the inverter/converter. i have sen people add a second 12v. try searching here, google and youtube. all the best!
thank you for the feeback! I'll be looking into it in the next couple months and will come back with an update!
