What Battery To Use?

[dunkoholic]

I have two air compressors with 2 5 gallon tank. I already upgraded my alternator to 160 amps but my battery seems to die fast especially when i turn my system on.

What battery should i upgrade to?

are those VIAIR 380's or 480's , or even if they are some other model , for instance , my 2 VIAIR 380's only draw 32 amps . so i think you have some other electrical issues , cause thats not that much of a draw on your battery ( equal to about a 300-500 watt audio amp ) . hope that helped........ btw , do not let your compressors run while the car is off , that can drain your battery some . if you have upgraded your electrical for a system (audio) , im pretty sure your getting a decent battery , right ? ,if you say yes , then that battery should be fine...................

put the biggest powermaster battery you can fit up front and add a D3100 in the rear the 3100 is a beast.

i got the 480's... yeah, i use to run it with the car off and i learned quickly as my battery died real quick.. it could be my amp then that sucks the juice out. cause i noticed everytime i hook it up, my battery dies...
