truck_buster23 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Can anyone tell me the amp draw on these amps? I have a 180 amp alternator and want to know if I can run one of these. Also if so will I have to put another batt in the truck? Quote Eclipse Hifonics Alpine Kinetik Optima Excessive Amperage alt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decaf Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 (edited) are you going to be using both in ur car or are these future purchases ~350a fuse is needed for autotek... i think 250a for the hifonics so ~300a max and ~200a max... guestimation yes you would need another batt(s) probably another 3 hc600s at least Edited September 16, 2008 by decafcappucino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmanson Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 i'm sure the 200 amp alt will do with two or three good batteries ... be sure to do the BIG 3 and maybe add the MLA module for the extra kick.

truck_buster23 Posted September 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 you should be good to go potna. what batteries are you thinking about going with? I will get a yellow top up front if it will fit. And use my Kinetick 600 in the rear until I can buy one.

Decaf Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) stick with kinetik and get the biggest that fits under the hood and get either 3 or 4 more hc600s... or two hc2000 or two hc1800 would prolly be enough u should be able to fit hc800-2000 under the hood in most cars edit* kinetik site says for autotek4000 (2)HC2000 kinetik site says for hifonics2608 (2)HC1400 Edited September 19, 2008 by decafcappucino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
