AQ 1200d .5 Ohms

Hey everyone, ive got a question about running my aq1200 at .5 ohms. I know it states on the website its only stable down to 1ohm ive heard/read alot of people have gotten it to .5 daily with the right electrical. right now i have a yellow top =/ under the hood about 30ah. i also have a little bit bigger alt but not by much, 90 is stock i think this is 110. Now i plan on getting a bigger bat for the trunk something thats equivalent to a hc 2000. Should this be enough to keep the aq amp running at .5 daily and should i use a battery isolator because they are diff batts? also i am running an aq 4x90 for the components. and i do have 1/0 running to the amps now with big 3 done.

With a 110amp alt, 1/0 throughout, and adding something along the lines of a HC2000 in the rear, I think you should be OK. The batts should be able to stop the voltage drop, and I highly doubt that voltage will drop lower than mid-upper 12's.

they are like time bombs at .5 they may go for days they may go for years but sooner or later shes gonna blow...most likely would last forever on burps with good electrical...though

I've run more than that with similar electrical no problems
