clouduz Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 I would run without it. The stinger one i had caused me to lose a whole volt in the back. Only useful ifyou plan on bumping with car off and not wanting to drain your front battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destram Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 I bought one for my system and never used it. Paid $20, and I'd take $10+shipping if you decide you want one.

CLNFREAK Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 not needed from what I have read, I would charge multi batterys together as one so that you bring the voltage up the same and you should be fine unless the car sits for long peroids of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destram Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 They are completely useless in car audio. Disregard anything anybody tells you otherwise. This. I was told they were necessary, but then I joined SMD and everyone said they were a bad idea, so I blew $20 for nothing, and it's been sitting in my closet since.

superdave07 Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 There really is no need for one with car audio. People may say things differently but if u do some research you'll see that most of the big spl competitors do not use them. They can cause more voltage drops and add resistance more than help your batteries... Just my 2 cents fellas....
