Either Im Getting... Kinetic KHC2000 ($250) Cranking Amps: 1500 Amp Hours: 102 XS Power D2400 ($280) Cranking Amps: 670 Amp Hours: 70 To my sight the KHC2000 is cheaper, more cranking amps, and more Amp hours Sooooo why should i go xs over kinetic?

Rainman215 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Are you comparing same sized batteries? I don't know the technical answer but there are videos in the XS power section comparing XS power batteries to kinetic and others.

dkahns51 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Go to the XS page and watch them compare the 2 batteries. I can take a crap in a box and mark the box guaranteed but it doesn't mean you got anything good **Clicky>>My 2009 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport Buildlog<<Clicky** I'm messing up 98% of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercharged DCs Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I thought you were supposed to look at max amps when choosing batteries for car audio.. But Nathan from XS has a video showing the differences, XS wins. Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamHT Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 you need to do a little more reading buddy. and VS threads arent allowed. Just posted yesterday if you feel like kinetik is the better choice for you, then by all means. get it. but if youre going to look at specs, it might help to know what they mean, and how they apply in certain applications. nate had a much better write up properly explaining the specs but if you want it, youll have to find it. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
