You dont have 14v like you would in a car. Most good agms only rest around 12.8 or so. That little battery maintainer isnt doin shit. Your going to ruin your batt by constantly draining it. You could also damage your equipment because of the low voltage. A dmm doesnt read rms and isnt a proper way to set gains. The carts like steve uses to test amps are specifically made for that. And he uses a 14v batt bank with a strong maintainer and only runs for short periods.

Okay, I can understand that.

Do you think if I get like a 14V battery it will help?
Also, if the battery is not capable to run 1000W-2000W amps, than why does XS power sell them like that?

Those ratings are based off of being in a car with an altenator to help keep them charged. Even in a vehicle if the alt isnt powerful enough to keep up with current demand the batts will drain and youll have the same issues.
