Socky Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 A lot of people run different batteries up front, As long as you keep them charged and such you shouldnt have a problem, always charge you rear batteries, even if its coming from the alt, let them trickle charge over night.

SnowDrifter Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Always parallel. If you hook them in series: I will LOL at your car fire. Something to note: the yellow tops rest at ~12.4v while the kinetiks rest at 12.9-13v. So you might get some parasitic draw from the yellow top.

Lbox88 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I have a yellow top up front and a HC 2400 in back. I rest no lower than 12.8 except when I left my car at the airport for 3 weeks, which took it down to 12.5V. Quote UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwjustic Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Well in that case I'm stealing my old yellow top back from my dad and just getting a second for the back. Is there a way to tel how many or how big I need for my system?
