white4d96 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Posted July 9, 2009 I got a marine battery from a friend for free. Load tested it and its still good and all. I was planning on installing it as a rear batt, but when I had it load tested at Advance, they said not to do it because it's a vented battery. Is there a way to use a vented battery as a rear batt? Or should I just suck it up and save for a sealed unit? Too many projects, too little time...
lanman31337 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Posted July 9, 2009 You could put it in a vented battery box and run the vent through the trunk outside the car. 2 - Audiopipe AP30001Ds 1 - Lanzar Opti Scion 600.4 4 - Lanzar Optidrive 1232D's 1 - Lanzar Opti 5.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6.1 1 - Lanzar Opti 6C midbass 1 - Alphasonic PCT6551 1 - Lanzar VX830 1 - JBL 22 band EQ 1 - Lanzar SDBT75NU 1 - AudioControl Epic160
skittlesRgood Posted July 9, 2009 Report Posted July 9, 2009 You could put it in a vented battery box and run the vent through the trunk outside the car. you could... but i would say suck it up and buy a sealed one. or find a place for it under the hood. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

white4d96 Posted July 9, 2009 Author Report Posted July 9, 2009 Won't fit up front, already tried =/ I will look at vented batt boxes. Anywhere I could get one cheap? A typical car batt is sealed, right? Too many projects, too little time...
