Bumpindemlowzz Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) Ok i have a stock cavalier with a 105 amp alternator and a napa battery. Im ordering everything for my system but the alternater i need. Im going to plan on getting a 275 amp dc power but until then. If i hookup a sundown 2000d will i ruin it or burnout the alt if i play it for only like 10 mins at a time? Should i get another battery for the rear before even thinking about playing it? Ill be sure not to play it at idle if that helps. Edited May 31, 2009 by fis10 Quote 2010 Silverado 18" DC XL 18 DC 2k XS Power Batts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team_DC-Derrick Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 i think you will be fine just dont blast it, it always helps to have better electrical tho, im running my whole setup on a 90 amp alt right now and it does fine if i watch the volume Quote The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

bassbaker15 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 ive ran my two amps on a stock alt and 3 batterys for a few months now.. even added a 4ch and it will play bumpin for long periods of time with out droping low at all... i say add a battery in the back and you should be fine for now Quote Team Deadly Hertz 1997 GMC 1500 Update....

Should i hook up a rear battery to help? Just a cheap advance auto one for now until i get money for powermaster. And i may add a rockford 75x4 too? Still Ok?

alvitae Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Dislaimer: Don't try this at home... I am running 2 1000 watt amps at a half ohm each charging 2 Kinetik 1800's and the stock battery on a 60 amp Honda alternator. Been to 3 comps so far and quite a few full tilts and no problems yet.

Are stinger volt meters accurate and i plan on doing the "big3" in welding 2/0 is that good enough should help right?
