zaxfire69 Posted June 6, 2007 Report Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) Well My lights are dimming giving me the blues..My local autozone carries the 34/78 series yellowtop and Redtop..These are for Chevy Trucks..Would you guys purchase one to stick in your trunk if you had a Civic..??? Would that extra battery help out with my light dimming and all that...I am about to run to Wal-Mart and buy freakin cheap batteries cause I need the voltage and it is getting on my nerves to drive down the road and look like a GD Christmas Tree with blinking lights..Someone please give me some insight..Oh yeah Optima quit making the 51 series for cars like Honda and Acura and Optima customer service is a joke...

BigOso Posted June 6, 2007 Report Posted June 6, 2007 I have a civic and the first thing I did was buy a H/O alt. Its your best friend and you will always use it. As far as adding a second batt I would try and go with a group 31 but its only gonna be a bandaid for awhile.

zaxfire69 Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) I have a 160 amp alternator...Why would it be a band-aide?? A group 31 is a big battery...Would the 34/78 along with my battery I have under my hood be sufficent for Daily driving?? Edited June 6, 2007 by zaxfire69 Quote
j_black10 Posted June 6, 2007 Report Posted June 6, 2007 What about getting a Kinetik hc1400? I think it will fit under your hood! I got a redtop in my explorer and I'm getting a kinetik hc800 at the end of the month to put in the back. Quote AudioControlRockford FosgateXSPower

Eric B Posted June 6, 2007 Report Posted June 6, 2007 not to jack the thread but is there adapters for kinetiks that allow for side post Gm style batteries? Quote 2007 Chevy HHR LT UNDER CONSTRUCTION 1st Place Loud N Low 2010 MWSPL Finals 3rd Place Xtreme 3 2010 MWSPL Finals
zaxfire69 Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Posted June 6, 2007 Ok..I am gonna Buy one of these Kinetik battery's..I just hope they live up to there Hype... Quote
zaxfire69 Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Posted June 6, 2007 Question is the 2400 the biggest that Kinetik makes..And if I use my Starting battery up front and A kinetik Big boy in the back would that be sufficent...??? If so..Done deal..Remember I have the 160 amp alt... Quote

If so..Done deal..Remember I have the 160 amp alt... I thought I heard they made an HC2600 or something, but I may be wrong. The HC2400 is WAYYYY powerful & if you get a 1400 up front & maybe 1 or 2 800's in the back, I'd bet your voltage problems would be history.
