Mix normal starter battery with AGM deep cycle battery?


Recommended Posts

I can only afford one agm batt right now, so it's either replace my stock batt with the deep cycle batt, or add it in parallel. Is that ok to do? and will i benefit from it more than just replacing the starter battery?

If your thinking about running more than one batt. your gonna want to look into a H/O Alt. if you havnt already. running a stock alt. trying to keep two batteries full of juice wont cut it. waste of money untill you get that upgrade. big 3 is a start but still Highly suggest a H/O before the thought of another batt.

if he is just running one extra battery then he will be fine now if he had 6 batteries and ~7k watts then he would need one but for just one secondary hes fine on the stock alt

Btw that was the first person. Ever banned by me while dropping a deuce. Feel privileged
