Moley

Oh, sorry dude. I have a Genesis coupe 2.0T with stock deck/speakers ( 6.5 components in front/6.5 full range in back ) Alpine 50rmsx4 to run them. For bass I have a Hifonics BRZ2100.1D running 2 10" Orion HCCA's ported @ 40hz.

It's in my signature. The alpine amp runs the stock infinity speakers. http://www.gencoupe.com/new-member-section/48549-acqua-minerale-genesis-coupe-2-0t-w-system.html I don't have the bass cranked all the way when I am camping of course. I have it about half way. I am like you and don't think that massive bass is good in that regard but some is needed. The speakers themselves do go quite loud surprisingly. I would play it for about 3-4 hours and start the car for 20 min every hour or so. It has worked so far and my amp is still kickn' but it does drain the battery way down.

When you are at a bush party with a huge bon fire going and 20-30 people partying you need to have loud tunes. Sometimes we trade off on who's car we use but mine is the loudest out of my buddys so I am usually the one. A ghetto blaster aint gonna cut it if you know what I mean.

Cool, thanks guys. I can't wait to hook that sucker up. It's an Odyssey 1700 for 170+tax new. Hope it works well. Hmmmmmmmmm....I wonder if I can just remove my starting battery and use the Odyssey in the trunk by itself. The starting battery is small to begin with.

Well if I don't let it go below 12 volts at the most and try not to go below resting ( whatever that may be ) I should be "relatively" ok then I figure. No? Oh and I was thinking about hooking the new battery up and then putting my car in the garage and putting the car on a 2 amp charge overnight to make sure I am starting from 2 fully charge batteries. Also mabye do that once in a while after that. That would be helpful too I think.

What would the resting voltage be? I hear it's 12.6 for a wet cell and higher for an agm. If I have these 2 together than would that changs. I want to buy a volt meter when I get my new battery so I wan't to be able to tell what's up with my voltage. Pardon my ignorance. check the voltage after the car sits over night. that should be your resting voltage. Duh......( talking to myself ) That makes sense. So how much differecne would the voltage be when charged up? 1 volt or so?

Hmmmm....that's gonna suck for camping this year. Mabye I will up the intervals that I have to turn the car on. I can't leave my car on for a couple of hours straight and the party can't happen without tunes. I usually turn the car on when the system starts to die. Bad Idea I guess.( Amp is still fine though ) That's why I wan't to know what minimum voltage to watch out for.

I have heard of that but mines still fine. I have run the battery almost all the way down a couple of times in the summer out camping. Not proud of doing that nor should I and that's one reason I am buying a big ass agm for the back.

Hey all. I am getting an agm battery for the back of my car to go along with the starter battery ( no isolator ) I was wondering if I play my stereo with the car off at what voltage should I be turning the car back on to charge?

Ok....Finally got it. Had to go 75% smaller to get under the 150x150 pixels, let alone the 50kb.

I resized to under 50kb and still no go. http://www.picresize.com/

It's a small stock battery and yup like a glove. 60AH and 550 CCA. Compact sports car. No room for squat. The only thing that will fit is a kinetik HC800 or a Shuriken BT35. I mean that is fine I guess as long as I have agm(s) in the back. I just have to save. I was thinking of a BT35 under the hood and a BT60 in the back. I am sure that will do it. What do you all think? That would be a total of 2200 watts capable and 95 AH. It shouldn't cost too much either and will be better than my stock battery for sure.

I found the category for electrical. Didn't scoll down far enough the first time. My bad. Good to know it's there.

Thanks. I think that my best bet is to ditch the stock battery and get some agms. Just have to save up I guess.

Ok cool. Nate huh. He knows his shit?

Well it's probably just a temporary glitch I guess.

Is this a glitch? Just goes to a blank screen.

I agree somewhat. I will still utilize the stock battery spot under the hood. I havent quite decided yet but I will either keep the stock battery in place and run and small agm in the back or put a small agm in place of stock and a bigger agm in the back. The first option is way cheaper and according to Boon shouldn't be that bad but the second option is probably the right way to go.

No worries is right. It's all good. Where should I have posted though? I don't see a technical catagory. Got a link?

not to start shit here but why give the guy a hard time? i mean, giving him shit over a question you dont even know the answer to... come on. and its a damn good question. i like to think i know a good deal about audio and the charging system but i couldnt answer this one lol. so i kept quiet until some one gave a good answer. its really not a hard thing to do Thanks for your support. Glad you liked the question. It's a thinker.

Facetious. Didn't mean to start anything.

Funny you say that....I was going to say also that it won't fit that way either. The strut tower is in the way. It's a small spot and only small agm's will fit there.

You might be right about people not noticing but I don't want to mod it like that. I would rather just keep the body stock and mod the engine. There has to be another way. I think just mabye a small agm under the hood and then one or two agm's in the trunk to make up for that. That would help with the weight distribution of the car too.

2010 Genesis coupe. I don't want to devalue it by cutting. The second vid is what I have now and my electrical simply can't keep up and I need solutions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwwBmUriIBA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2g-ljLjmQGk
