vettedude102 Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) Ok I have a DC 3.5k and a Mechman 220 amp alt. I can fit either 2 xs d2400's or 2 xs d3400's. Question is which would be better for me. Could even mix it up 1 d2400 and 1 d3400. Edit: Which would be better 1 d3100 or 2 d3400?

D-train-13k Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 i have a D3400 and its really strong. you can charge at 15.0 volts all day. no experience with the other. but im pretty sure with the alt and two of either battery you should be good.

corona_jeff Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 U can mix them if you like. Both have the same output. If both if, Id tell you to get the 3400's. You will save almost 100bux that route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan @ XSpower Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Although a lot of people do it I wouldn't charge in the 15V range. 14.4V max for daily use and you can bump up to 14.9V for competitions. The higher you charge at the more likely you are to hurt the battery and cut down on the life of the battery. Either of the 2 will work, and as said above the 3400 will save you some $$$$. The 2400 will give you a little more reserve since it is just a little bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownm3 Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 the bigger the better. x2 Personally I would still with 2 of the same batteries vs mixing and matching.

vettedude102 Posted October 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 I figured instead of starting a new thread I would just bump this one. Question is in the first post.

tonedeaf Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 2 D3400s will be > 1 D3100. Simply more of a reserve. Althogh two D3100s = . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
