Adding A 2nd Battery


Recommended Posts

I was thinking of adding a 2nd battery to my setup, but I believe that somewhere I read that if a 2nd battery is added then you have a chance of burning up your alt, in my case generator, because it couldnt supply enough electricity to keep both batteries going. I was wondering if I added a 2nd battery if I would be safe. I plan on upgrading to an alt before the summer is up...

I definitely wouldn't add a second battery with a generator.... but as for you getting an alternator I would so GO FOR IT BRO! I'd wait to get the alt before I added a second battery, that stock generator is antique and might burn up, and I'd HATE to see such a classic car go up in flames.

i think you will be fine...as long as u plan on upgrading alts in the future. just dont pound the system to its limits, especially with the car off, u dont wanna make the alt work any harder then it has to!
