Not sure why you would use a marine grade battery. Get some AGM batteries

I heard they are fine and i believe some car audio batts are even deep cycle.

I have only seen them run in offroad vehicles though that had small systems where everything is as rugged and water resistant as possible. so they may not be as powerfull

750??! Yeah, fuck that. Fuck this website, fuck SMD, fuck Steve, fuck all of his butt buddy mods, and their couches.

I ran two big ass marine batts in the trunk on a sundown saz3000d. clamped 2600w with those two and the stock up front. But all in all they dont compare to like xs or anything.. but i also built a box with a vent tube to keep out the fumes etc.. all in all it was ok i guess :/

Setup:


2010 Hyundai Elantra


Factory Unit via 4 chan NVX LOC


Excessive Amperage "H/O" Alt


Xs D3400/ Xs XP3000


Big 3. 2 Runs of +, 2 Runs of -

ive heard many good things about deka's From what I understood about batts is to get ones with alot of amp hours. but im not sure last setup had 3 standard car batts lol.

marine deep cylce batteries are not all agm batteries, http://www.autozone.com/autozone/accessories/Duralast-Marine-battery-12-months-free-replacement/_/N-255s?itemIdentifier=107676

They were designed to hold higher capacities so that they take a longer period of time to be drained and are supposed to be ok to deep cycle and be recharged more often than a regular battery can handle.
