Can any of you fine folks tell me exactly what this tiny adjusting knob on top of a Tsunami 2 farad capacitor is for? It figures, the instruction manual doesn't even mention it. When I turn it, the voltage on the display rises. Does it actually increase the volt surge?

Thank you very much and keep up the outstanding work.

going to be hard to give you any real help w/o knowing exactly what cap you're dealing with.

What I do know is that you can only get as much voltage at the cap as your alternator will put out.

Its a voltage adjuster for the display. Find the real voltage of the wire and adjust the cap to reflect. If the voltage is 13.6, adjust the caps display to 13.6

So you mean find out the incoming voltage from the battery, right? Does it matter if the engine is on, off, or in idle? Thanks
