Battery choice


Recommended Posts

Okay let me post current electrical....

250a Mechman Rhino series

Stock battery 600 CCA 68 AH 110 RC

Deka 9a31 in back by sub amp (SAZ-3000D)

2 runs of 1/0 from alt positive to front battery

Big 3 Done

1 1/0, 8G, and 4G from front batt to back battery

Back battery grounded to front battery

Was thinking of upgrading my front battery to a Deka Intimidator 9A78DT or Carquest NGT Extreme NG3478 Supposed to be the same battery as deka just re-badged (wanted to buy new local)

Would I benefit any from changing from stock. Forgot to mention the specs on the Deka

Cold Cranking Amps 740

Cranking Amps 850

Reserve Capacity 120

Amp Hour Rate 55

I was told yes b/c i would have two matching technologies (AGM) was also told no b/c the aH was lower.

Goal is to keep the highest voltage possible while strengthening the electrical system.

if i did the math right please correct me if im wrong but if you have 3000 watts you divide that by .7 for 70% which =4285.71 an divide that for by 13v = 329.67 times that by .6 for 60% = 150 you minus the 150 from 329.67 and get 179.67 amp hours needed to make the 3000 watts
