Ajax: at the ripe old age of 58, soon to be 59, I know what you mean. Now, what was I going to say..........? LOL!!!

On a slightly different topic this morning, I was on another chat board where one person was talking about his lights dimming when he turned on his "high powered" amp. Assuming that everything else was OK (and I'm not sure one way or another), this may be the so called current "in rush."

I know that there are simple circuits that are used to prevent this. But, are there some "cheap" add on or plug in units that also do this? No, I'm not talking about those so-called power conditioners even though they may do the job. Anyone have a link or two?

Was that a home system? Or vehicle.

I had that problem with my truck system, even with a capacitor. I had to buy a deep cycle battery.

If it's his home, then he's probably on a circuit that's already overloaded with a common neutral to the lighting circuit. That would cause the lights to dim.

It was a home system on a 20 amp circuit.

Said that he put it on another 20 amp circuit with nothing else turned on, and it did almost the same thing. Sure sounds like a current in-rush problem.

Any links to in-rush protectors?
