I use a 1F just to try out and observe the difference. I didn't have a big stero system, just want to try it out and observe by a volt meter. When it come to time where a voltage is drop e.g when you turn the headlight on. With a Cap, it's drop from 14.2 to 13.1 a little slow than with out CAP. Without CAP it's drop to 13.0 a little faster. Helps very very little. BUt for sure I agree that it will never be able to keep the voltage steady, just help to keep the rapid chage in voltage that's all. Get a bigger AMP battery surely helps
