You shouldnt be dimming lights with what you are running and with those electrical upgrades. I would get an external battery in the back and see if that helps. Big 3 for sure if you havent already.

darvex Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 Reserve is key on these big systems with high current demands. It sounds like you have a good set up but may need another battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
