[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7872339, member: 573547"] I don't understand how you figure 3k out of a BRZ 1700, but I want one like u got. What battery do you have under the hood? If you have an AGM deep cycle like the HC 1200, you should have the same type of battery under the hood. Ideally, you want all of your batteries alike...but at a minimum, the same TYPE. I would run like a HC2000 under the hood and go from there, adding in the rear as needed. I bet if you have the Big 3 and had a HC 2000 under the hood, you would not have much dimming at all, but if so, then another HC2000 would be a perfect add in to the back. Yeah, you can get by mis-matching sizes, but when you mis match types, you are asking for failure. Either the regular "Starting Battery"will fail from being pulled down too far, too often, or the AGM may not get into the right "memory"and fail to keep/acheive max charge after a short period of time...It is just a gamble I, personally, choose to avoid. I do not like to gamble like that. peace out- [/QUOTE]
