dunkoholic Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 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?

02Blazer Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) 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...................
