bigeasy79 Posted December 12, 2006 Author Report Posted December 12, 2006 the reason i asked about the battery under the hood was i read that different batterys had different resting amps or somthing like that so i didnt know if mixing brands was good or not Quote
SPLGEO Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 meade has a yellow top under his hood.. and teh pc2150 batterys in the back.. its fine.. an AMP is an AMP, same as a VOLT is a VOLT Quote 1995 Geo Prism .

bigeasy79 Posted December 12, 2006 Author Report Posted December 12, 2006 alright but which is better the kinetiks or the optimas cause the 600 is cheaper and the 800 is only $20 more Quote
dmanson Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 i haven't had any experience with the kinetiks yet but i'd probably do that one over the yellowtop.

bigeasy79 Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Posted December 13, 2006 thats what i was thinking but never hurts to ask Quote
SPLGEO Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 kinetk is $ for$ better Quote 1995 Geo Prism . FI BTL 12 P chamfer, 3rdmagnet HIXMAX COIL 1/0 big 3 HIFONICS COLOSSUS 1.7 cubs tuned to 60hz in the works 2xTruck battery 1125 cca.
bigeasy79 Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Posted December 13, 2006 ok i think im going to go with the kinetik hc 800 and 2400 but about wire is one run of 0awg going to be enough and what size fuse am i going to need to use Quote
dmanson Posted December 14, 2006 Report Posted December 14, 2006 i called up kinetik and talked to a guy name Eric and i told him about me having a dual purpose yellowtop under the hood and i wanted to know if i could keep the yellowtop and add the HC800 in the back. well he told me that i could use them both but the HC800 would outlast the optima and that i might want to look into getting the optima changed over to a kinetik 2000 or 2400 in the front. so that's that Quote 2-DC 15XLM2 D.7s 1-DC 5K amp (1) XS Power D6500(UNDERHOOD) and (1) XS3000(REAR) 3 runs 1/0ga for power and 2 runs of 1/0ga for negative.

dmanson Posted December 14, 2006 Report Posted December 14, 2006 i've been rolling with optima since 2000 and they haven't let me down but i think it's time for something new and all the hype about kinetik ............ mightest well try it. besides you can't beat the HC600(100 farads for around $99 on ebay) and the HC800(200 fard for around $120 on ebay). that's just too good of a deal.
