zayres29 Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 pretty much any 12v deep cycle battery can be wired to another Btw that was the first person. Ever banned by me while dropping a deuce. Feel privileged
Aj11 Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 that's cranking amps, it only effects when you first start your car before your alt takes over. jvc deck stinger 1800 front hc 2000 kinetic rear 2 runs of 1/0g big 3/4 ct 60.4 2 ct 1400.1 ct EXO 15 d1 lots of deadner type r comps front stage 6 kicker tweets rear stage lots of great stuff coming soon ho alt more bats ct comps for front stage more deadner sweet amp rack lots of L.E.D lights new deck (thinking 80 prs, or flip out)
Guest Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 swap the optimas out for good agm batteries. like the ones they sell at sears (the AGM style ones). if you're going to get an alt, only look at mechman or dc power.

HHR Ed Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 Any AGM batt should be good to -40F. Optima Batts are OK but not what they used to be since they got sold and moved to Mexico. But, most an AGM battery can be connected to another AGM Battery. Yellowtops are AGM. So get any other AGM of any size and you will be fine. It's really when you mix chemistry that you have an issue. For example. A wet cell and AGM have different ESRs. So their natural resting voltage will be different. This different will cause a small amount of current to flow between the batts even when no load is present. This will keep the plates warm and reduce the life of the batts.
