battery in the back

[jag09 10+ year member]

well right now im getting ready hook up my zrs10 on stock electrical. To be safe do you think i should put a small battery or a bat cap in the trunk and run it in parallel to the battery in the front? would a hc600 or hc800 do the job if not any other sugguestions on batts.? on the kinetik site it says i should run two hc1400's

2500 watt amp would need a larger battery...i would go with a 2400 personally

so a reg. battery up front and a 2400 in the back? or just a 2400 ?

2400 in back with the regular battery up front would yeild better than a 2400 up front only draw back to the 2 battery idea is if you leave the the car undriven for extended periods of time. in that case i would remove a fuse between the batteries. i would also take just a 2400 under the over a factory battery upfront and a 800 in back

the car would be driven everyday almost, so pretty much i think im gonna go with the 2400 up front if it can fit and later an 800 in the back

how long is an "extended period" to you?

Why do people always want to add batteries? Do the Big 3 and get an alternator if needed before buying more batteries. Remember both batteries have to charge off your alternator, so a second battery could add more strain.
