ptcary Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 (edited) Ok, Darvex has me questioning my previous decison to buy a kinetik HC1800 battery, and I am now curious about getting a Powermaster instead. This is for a one battery setup, under the hood, 2003 PT Cruiser 120 amp alternator, with only 990 watts total, so nothing too exotic needed. I am thinking one D5100R??? Yes, my PT needs the "reversed" terminals. Which Powermaster would everyone recommend???

mrrairai Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 What Group size is your battery? However measure how much space you have and get the biggest one you can fit in there.

mrrairai Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 You might be able to squeeze the D5100R in there. Just double check the height before you buy.

Yes, my PT needs the "reversed" terminals.Which Powermaster would everyone recommend??? I have the D5100R and LOVE IT! It fits like a glove in my Element, but my car does call for a group 51R. 8 3/16 6 13/16 7 3/4 This is the size of a group 26 9.04x5.45x8.15 This is the 5100 LWH If you have to room to spare. . I know my answer. ( My D5100 is good for 2000watts as primary. The HC1800 is only good for 1350) But, if your primary battery is healthy, all you really need is the D680 and 511 mount for that wattage. It's good for about 1000watts as a supplemental battery near the amps. If you might upgrade or would like some overkill, I think the D925 would be perfect. It's capable of 2400 amp bursts and supplements up to 2000watts. Use mount 527. www.xspowerbatteries.com What's funny .. The HC1800 is only good for 1350watts as the primary .. The D1200 would fit no problem with room to spare and maybe be able to use your factory mounts. .and, it's good for about same power as the larger HC1800. So, you have choices.
