Is A Secondary Battery Necessary


Recommended Posts

i want to push 4 kicker cvr 12's with a 4000watt power acoustik amp, pushing 425 watts rms to each at 2 ohm,

if i do the big 3 under the hood and put a 250 amp alternator in will i still need a second battery? or could i just get away with the big alternator.. and i will only be pushin maybe 2100 watts rms

damn i was hopin i could slide by.. i wanted to get some other opinions, i dont know how to wire the second battery in, so i didnt want to mess with one.. i was hopin to slide with just a giant battery in the front, and a big capacitor in the back.. does anybody think that would be possible?

I would batts only give you power for short term, what happens when the batts die? alt has to keep up with your draw
