Did you have this measured? It's hard to take 12 volts in to a 50 ohm load and get 25 watts out. It's also why you end up with 4 watts. (12 / 50) * 12 = 2.88 watts. Of course we are talking AC here so it changes a bit. At 13.8 volts (normal alternator) you get 3.8088 watts. Real world may be a little higher but not a lot. Now 24 volts gives you over 11 watts.yes take it its a good deal hope it works though if does cool now get you a good antenna like a any kind of wilson antenna they are very good any model and also the wilson lil wil mag mount is very good not to tall not to short.if you have a cb shop around your area take it up there and get a peak&tune they will make you radio do more watts and your audio will be louder and more range! 4watts legal litmit.
and with a peak&tune they will make it dead key 6watts swinging 25 watts when talking and also get a better mike good luck with it
All modern car stereos and amps that produce any good power all have switching power supplies that boost the voltage way up. They in turn draw more amperage. For a while people were selling 200 watts amps that ran on 12 volts with no internal supplies. Translation, they were being ripped off.
