How many batteries do I need for my setup?

[Smoove]

Buddy runs 7k on a DC 320 3p, 2 G31s and a G34. Holds mid 11s.

11's ???? PSSSSSH!!! 1 mechaman 370 6 group31's ( 4 xp3000's and 2 C&D ) on 2 T2000's and 1 T15004 I see high 12's full tilt. and can do that for long demo's.

Less power, but more charging and more reserve.

sounds accurate. lol.

And that's why I say at least 6 batts with 8k if the OP is keeping the same alt and not going dual. Or for close to the same price as 6 batts, he could just get a lithium

Yup, i agree Justin

370amp alt with a charging voltage of 14.4 and a resting voltage of 12.8 you would need a total of 473 amp hour's worth of battery's to do 8k .... these are baseline guesses as I dont know what your electrical is doing

4 X XP3000

or

5 X D2700

or

4 x D3100

I would say 6 or more, you can never have enough battery.

[Kyblack76]

Ya. Do 32- 16 volt bats

You can never have enough.

Fair enough, but with all the systems out there it's nice to see a person every now and then that has enough juice to actually support their current draw.
