adding batteries in the trunk


Recommended Posts

Is it okay to put 2 batteries in the trunk and just run power wire straight from the alt to the batts in the trunk and just keep the battery under the hood to power the rest of my car? or should I just get another battery for under the hood too and connect them all together

Connect them all together. Your underhood battery won't go very far without having an alt to keep it charged ;)

but couldnt i hook them all up? with maybe 3 or 4 runs to the back from the alt n 1 run from the alt to the front batt?

Ohh now I see what you are asking.

Yeah, just make one run run from the alt to the back to connect the two rear batteries. Maybe 2 runs depending on length/alt size. Then run 1 run from the alt to the front battery. Since the positives are connected to the alt, it is like having them all in parallel.

My wording might be really bad... I'm tired. If you can't understand it, I'll rephrase in the morning lol
