AMI CUSTOMS Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Most agm batteries aren't fully discharged until 10.5 volts so once your down that low they have to have a charge put back on them but fully discharging an agm is not something I would recommend. When your down to below the resting which will likely be 12.8 is pretty general for agm. Then charge back up.

Well if I don't let it go below 12 volts at the most and try not to go below resting ( whatever that may be ) I should be "relatively" ok then I figure. No? Oh and I was thinking about hooking the new battery up and then putting my car in the garage and putting the car on a 2 amp charge overnight to make sure I am starting from 2 fully charge batteries. Also mabye do that once in a while after that. That would be helpful too I think. Edited January 7, 2011 by Moley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skittlesRgood Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 yes that is perfectly fine to do. might want to charge it before putting it in if its been sitting a while.

Moley Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Cool, thanks guys. I can't wait to hook that sucker up. It's an Odyssey 1700 for 170+tax new. Hope it works well. Hmmmmmmmmm....I wonder if I can just remove my starting battery and use the Odyssey in the trunk by itself. The starting battery is small to begin with.

skittlesRgood Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 battery power is battery power, keep the battery up front. upgrade it if you can.

TeamHT Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I can't help but think there must be a better way to have music when camping.... Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moley Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I can't help but think there must be a better way to have music when camping.... When you are at a bush party with a huge bon fire going and 20-30 people partying you need to have loud tunes. Sometimes we trade off on who's car we use but mine is the loudest out of my buddys so I am usually the one. A ghetto blaster aint gonna cut it if you know what I mean.

TeamHT Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I do know what you mean, but having loud bass isn't my idea of good party music. I utilize a converter and have a very nice stereo system I use. Even with my stiff electrical I don't think I would ever like to play the truck for hours, lol. What is your setup?

It's in my signature. The alpine amp runs the stock infinity speakers. http://www.gencoupe.com/new-member-section/48549-acqua-minerale-genesis-coupe-2-0t-w-system.html I don't have the bass cranked all the way when I am camping of course. I have it about half way. I am like you and don't think that massive bass is good in that regard but some is needed. The speakers themselves do go quite loud surprisingly. I would play it for about 3-4 hours and start the car for 20 min every hour or so. It has worked so far and my amp is still kickn' but it does drain the battery way down.
