oldschoolbeats Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 Im running 2 cactus audio k9s amps, max amperage shouldnt be more than 1,800 amps, running 2 320 amp alts. I picked up 8 110ah crown agm group 31 batteries on sale. That gives me about 900 amp hours. This is for a burp only car. I got a smokin deal on these for $175 a piece, regularly $268. I might go get 2 more since i can fit 2 of them under the hood with a custom battery tray. Giving me about 1100 amp hours plus 640 amps of alt.
Jhunt94 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 Are you going to be burping with the car on of off? 2007 Ford F-150 Reg. Cab.

Jhunt94 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 I really don't want to say if you could or couldn't, that many batteries and alts aren't my expertise but I do know that 640+1100 doesn't equal 1800. And if it were me I'd probably make sure I had that or a little over. But maybe someone with a little more expertise will jump in. 2007 Ford F-150 Reg. Cab.

Miguels Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 With car on I would have gotten more alternator less batteries.. You spent $1400 on batteries that could have gone towards 2 more alternators my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/
RooTxBeeR Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 Let's do some math, you said no more than 1800amp to be pulled. And you have 1100 in batteries aH, and 640 aH from a chargin source. 1100+640=1740. Looks like your shy a tad. If your burping, you will nee everything because sine waves pull some current. If it is to be music, you'd probably be fine.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

I mean they where in his first sentence. Oldschoolbeats, Take that extra money to get a alt, you would benefit more than the extra batts.

And did you miss the alts too? I mean they where in his first sentence. Oldschoolbeats, Take that extra money to get a alt, you would benefit more than the extra batts. Dude calm down i was being sarcastic because no one else took the time to do simple math. I'm in agreement about the alt. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
oldschoolbeats Posted May 7, 2015 Author Report Posted May 7, 2015 More alts is not an option, this is in an 04 honda civic, already sticking 2 alts out the hood.
