Cardboardcat15 Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Wanted to get some knowledgeable opinions on how much battery I should have. I plan on running around 2.5k off a mechman 220. Would I be fine with just my d1200 under the hood and a 3400 in the back? I don't want to see big voltage drop, but low 13's ain't anything new for me. I'm just looking for a spit ball estimation.

Cardboardcat15 Posted December 8, 2011 Author Report Posted December 8, 2011 I figured it would be an ample amount, considering I drop into high 13's on only a 1500. Anyone else?

TeamHT Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Research how to calculate your current draw. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?
Cardboardcat15 Posted December 8, 2011 Author Report Posted December 8, 2011 Research how to calculate your current draw. Figured I'd eventually do that. Just wanted to put the thread up quickly, when I posted this I was on my way to a final. Will do. My Channel on YouTube.

MECHMAN Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 In my experience this is a good starting point and you shouldn't see excessive voltage drop. 1-888-MECHMAN www.Mechman.com [email protected]
AMI CUSTOMS Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 If it was me and I had the money and room, go straight to the group 31 size batt, kinetik 2400, d3100, batcap 4000, one of those. No point going smaller when you will likely add more later anyway.
