I Thought I Had Decided

[A&W ROOTBEER]

i had decided on going with 3 fi q 18's and 1 sundown 3k amp on a 300amp alt and 2 batteries in back and 2 in front..but now im think i want 4 18's and if i go that way i will change the amp to 2 kicker zx 2500.1's now the money to do this will only be $640 more..but will my eletrical hold up with 2 2500 watt amps and a 3-400 watt 4 channel amp?

First get set on 1 3000watt or 2 @ 5000 watt this is a big difference. Batteries will help for sure what type of car?

I would do like i did I have 13 batteries little overkill but nice. You could get duel stock alternators (lifetime warranty @zone) And with a module they will put out 300 amp all day long. Add two kinetic 2000 to hold the current. Instead of one alt trying to handle all the load an heats up quickly. This is a stable set up. I have two stock 140amp alts charging all 13 batteries no problems. I run 18,000 watts still stay above 14.5v. Im selling 2 ohio 240amp alts for a 2005 GM. I'll sell 1 alt with a module for $400 shipped. Hope this helps.

We are tooling some duels right now. But I'm selling my duel alts and bracket $900. You would have the same set up as my hummer. If you run 2 you will need the module for sure mine was the reason we developed the module. When you try to splice in the 2nd alt plug your computer kicks out both alts and you get the battery not charging light. Plus the GM has a 80% charge 13.8v set point. The module gets you about 110% and 15v set point.

A&W, that module is so easy to install. It took me about 20 minutes and that was because I was paying more attention to my beer than installing the module. Also it takes longer to clean up the wiring then it does to hook the module up. Trust me....its worth it. The directions that MLA sends are so dead on that you'll have no worries.
