Oh like i said i know jack shit about electrical stuff. I didnt know if you meant adding another battery could make the volts to high or make it drop more or something. Your working with a newbie. So how do you wire up another battery do you just simply hook one battery up to the other one?

Thanks, but now does anyone have any suggestions on a somewhat cheap battery that will work in my situation, simply because I am not running and dont plan on running a huge 1,000 watt plus setup. I want to try and keep the price low and get my lights to stop dimming and keep my voltage up because i can even notice a difference in how the bass hits for the first few seconds when Im up above 14v than when it drops to 12.

Kranny Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 how much does all this typically cost? depends on the company you buy the alternator from, iraggi, dc alts, theres a bunch out there that people run on the forum. but its all gonna cost around $300 or so.
