Does listening to music while driving affect the car battery?

[LeAurora]

Listening to music while driving does not harm the car battery. Power consumption for music: The kinetic energy of the car is converted to some extent into electrical energy stored in the battery. Therefore, you can keep the audio system on while driving. Audio systems consume relatively little power, ranging from tens of watts to a hundred watts, while subwoofers can consume up to thousands of watts. This power doesn't come from nowhere; it's drawn from the battery's charge, which is essentially converted from the energy of gasoline. Listening to music when parked: If the car is turned off, the engine obviously can't continue to work and recharge the battery. In this case, using electronic devices in the car, including the audio system, consumes the battery's stored power. All batteries have a fixed capacity, so while the car battery can certainly power the audio system for some time, it's not advisable to listen to music for extended periods when the engine is off.
