What size battery will I need


Recommended Posts

So later on I'm going to upgrade. Im going to need a new battery and alt. my question is what battery do I need for my setup? I'm going to be running 1 hifonics zeus 1500.1 at 1000 watts rms and a hifonics Zeus 600.4 (75 watts rms each) for a total of about 1500 watts rms. with the fans for amp rack and some LEDs. (I know they won't be that much amps but I'm rounding up to make it easy) so I need a battery for that and my car is a 1999 dodge durango 5.9l with a stock 117 amp alternator. What battery will be best and what size alternator(probably mechman) will be best?

I've got an xs power s3400 if your interested, good for 2kw as main battery and xs says 4k as second battery, I'd say 3k would be good though, has Ibar kit to allow fitment of side posts as well, 165+ ship

With those amps your looking at 200a of draw on the system and probably another 60+ for the car for a total of 260a, depending on your alt you will want to make the rest up in batteries and as was said get the biggest under the hood and an extra for the back.

That would be a hell of a deal but I need money. I'm out of a job for about 5 months :(
