MECHMAN Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Batteries are like any other audio component, you get what you pay for. To answer your question, Odyssey batteries ARE the same as Stinger. They are good quality batteries on par with XS power, but are actually generally more expensive than XS power pound for pound. The small batteries you linked to are way to small for what you are trying to do. From my own testing, Kinetik and Shuriken batteries are of significantly inferior design and performance. Deka AGM batteries are decent for the money, but can be sometimes hard to find. That being said, we have D3100 batteries for $349 shipped anywhere in the 48 states. You could buy one of those for your trunk and leave your stock battery under the hood, and be in GREAT shape for your system, and even have some reserve left over for the future. XS batteries also have an outstanding warranty program, so you don't have to worry about it crapping out on you.

Skullz Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 They used to be 134.00 back around winter time but have gone up in price but still a damn good battery for the price. Free shipping is always a nice thing. http://www.autobarn.net/eas9a78dt.html 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigballa39213 Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Correct me if im wrong but I thought it was 1 amp of current for every 1 RMS watt of output. Like 2000 watts RMS needs 2000 amps of current. 98 Chevy Blazer 4 Door Stock Everything The New Setup 1 - Pioneer AVH-P5200DVD 1- Pioneer DEH-80PRS 2 - Blues Audio 5.25 Mids ( On the dash ) 2 - Blues Audio BL8.0C Components ( In the front doors ) 2 - Blues Audio BL8.0 Woofers ( In the rear doors ) 1 - Linear Power 952 ( Dash ) 1 - Linear Power 2202IQ Modified ( Components ) 1 - Linear Power 3002 ( Rear Doors ) 1 - SoundStream XBP-10 Processor 1 - SoundStream BX-20Z 2 - SoundStream DTR1.3400D 4 - RE Audio SX12D4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
