Now you realize, and correct me if i'm wrong, but when you drop to a certain voltage (12?) and under i think, your no longer pulling off the battery, your pulling straight from the alternator and putting a huge load on it.

And for budget amps check out Hifonics they are cheap and are about 85% efficient which is decent for a cheaper amp.
