Mosin Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Noob Question: In my S-10 I have a new Everstart Maxx battery which does 850CCA and I have a extra batt lying around. Its an Interstate batt. which does roughly the same CCA but it not at a full charge. Is it possible to wire these together +/+, -/- with one in under the hood and one in the walk-through area? What problems would having the Interstate batt not fully charged wired with the New Everstart batt pose?? When I say not fully charged I mean the Interstate on not so cold days will start the truck but on days below 10 degrees its dead. Which requires a quick jump-start to get it to start. Thanks and sorry for such a noob question. Derp.

Mosin Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Posted January 28, 2009 footlongsam - Thanks, you confirmed my thoughts. DHFHades - Didn't know that. Derp.

DHFHades Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 DHFHades - Didn't know that. yeah, it's on here somewhere, that when lead acid batteries charge they give off some gas that is not very good for you, I wanna say sulfardioxide but I'm not 100% sure on that 1990 Jeep Cherokee 4X4 Pioneer DEH-P2900MP, Big 3 done in 1/0, 1 run 1/0 ran to amp DAT HF1000.1 #007 powering a DC lvl4 15 DAT HR 4085 prototype powering 2 Selenium 6s and 2 no name tweeters running active 1st place in AS3 @ Surf City Sound Off, 140.8 @ 45hz @ the headrest. rebuild coming soon to get a better score "I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail.

Boon Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 Don't put flooded batteries in your cabin. Firstly, as mentioned, they release gas when charging (Sealed batteries will still do this if over-charged) and secondly if they leak/spill acid it will burn right through your carpet and out through the floor ;/ 10.x volts fo' life!
