Should be less than 1200 watts RMS. I asked Cadence what the formula is to change that into amperage requirements, he wouldn't say, just that it depends on the efficency of the amps, and that he knew because they test thier amps. He said just over 100 amps of constant power. The HC600 is about the same amperage of the stock battery, and not enough to fill my requirements. I know the combo of the HC1400 and HC600 is a bit of overkill but since my alternator is undersized I figured my batteries are in a state of constant drain. I'd rather have an abundance of power than not enough. I was wondering about fitting the HC1400 in the stock spot since it is a few hairs bigger... I thought it probably work but I won't have it until next week. Have you already tried this??? Does it work???
