JZeFF Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Power from the HU to a cheap on/off switch, then run the switch to the battery positive. Negative to the negative battery terminal... Pretty simple really. Just gotta keep the battery charged and not run more than a few hundred watts.

Joe X Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 You would just discharge the battery after a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass_stalker Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) take the red and yellow wires and twist them together then attach it to one side of the switch. attach a wire to the positive end of the battery to the switch. then put the ground on the negative terminal. also you might wanna rethink doing a sub unless you put maybe two batteries together and have a trickle charger hooked up to em Edited October 20, 2011 by bass_stalker Quote JEEP BUILD PROJECT ANTIBLING.2000 jeep Cherokee.HEADUNITAlpine Cda-9886SUBSTAGE1 acendent 18" audio mayhem motor with a TI basket and tantric parts1 prototype DAT hellfire 1000.1HIGHSStockELECTRICALdb link 0 gaugeKnuconceptz Kolossus 4 gauge1 xs power d3400 under hoodBig 3 upgradeold fourwheeler build The only way to delete your SMD account is for you crawl to steve meades door step on your knees and pleade for his forgiveness and acceptance to be released...He will either grant your wishes.....or choke you with a large piece of 0 gauge and electrocute you by hooking up a solid gold DC 12k at 0.000001 ohm and 10000 volts to your eye sockets and blow your head apart You guys act like you have never clogged a toilet and ran around the bathroom frantically hoping it don't overflow.
