Received an Earthquake PHD5000w today, and wanted to make sure it worked.

So I hooked up my battery charger to my autometer 12v gauge to make sure it was doing the at least 12 volts, Then left that together unplugged it, hooked up the amp, and then plugged the battery charger in and the meter read 18v o0 I was like WTF!!!!

I've never had something like that happen and I've hooked up 2 different Memphis St-1500Ds as well as some older kenwood deck and a pioneer p1r back in the day the same way and worked fine.

Was the amp messed up before this or did I mess it up?

Thanks.
