Time to finally shop for a battery! The other day I had to jump start my '06 Scion tC with original stock battery, so it's due for a replacement soon. My system isn't crazy, I have 2 amps totalling 550W RMS 60amps. I play it loud while driving and it suits my needs, but rarely run it for more than a few minutes while the car is off.
I went to the XS site and did the car lookup and it says I should get the D2400, but $320 for the battery and posts is a lot considering stock was working just fine. When I turn it up about half way, i do get some headlight dimming so I got a 1 farad cap to help with that, but haven't installed it yet.
My buddy says I should just get a good DieHard battery. I was thinking of getting an Optima yellow cap initially, but then stumbled onto XS Power. Just looking for justification on the price tag. Considering that I wont be upgrading the system any more in this car, what do you all think I should do? Price really isn't a problem, I just don't want to over do it.
Any feedback would greatly be appreciated.
