Here is a picture of my setup. Should I add a fan to cool the amps? Nothing impressive. 2 nights with a jigsaw and viola...

 

hard to see but is there plexi over the amps?

OT- where did you find that fire extinguisher? $?

 

if you have overheating issues then yes. other wise i don't see the need for a fan. my $.02

 

It's a Halon fire extinguisher

Yes..it's a plexi over the amps.

 

Do the amps ever shut off? If they overheat then i'd add a fan or in my case, I relocated my amp to the top of my sub box and i suppose it was a better location for air circulation and it hasn't shut off again yet.

 

wow $165 for a fire extinguisher. Whats so special about a Halon fire extinguisher?

 

hehe it must put out fire quick. I'd just steal that big red one from my school and put it in my car for that much. hehehe

Halon is a gas. Regular fire extinguishers are dry chemical. If you ever use one, you know how much foam residue that it leaves behind. If you ever use it in an engine bay, you pretty much ruin all your wirings. It's total loss even if you put the fire out.

 

Hmm... interesting. Are all halon fire extinguishers generally this expensive?

 

I believe so...if people are just doing it for show, then the APC ones will do the trick. But I figure if I'm going to have one, I might as well get a functional one.

 

a fan cant hurt
