Battery or No Battery?

[travicles 10+ year member]

Hi there. Right now, I am just running a mb quart dsc4125, so about 500 watts. I have a 140 amp alternator and an optima redtop. This weekend though, I am installing the mb quart dsc1500, so that basically runs my wattage total to 2000. Can my current electrical system handle this? I have a feeling it won't. Also, I have done the big 3.

Basically, what kind of battery should I add since I'm about to run 2000 watts? I am looking for something cheap and easy to get, so if anything works that I can get at walmart or sears or anything like that, that would be great. Thanks for any suggestions.

I would just replace your red top battery with a Kinetik HC2000 and call it a day......

Or throw the kinetik in the back and have some more on reserve and still get use out of the redtop //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Okay well I called the Kinetik dealers of my area, but their pricing is ridiculous in my opinion. Where is the best place to get them?

I dont think kinetik is that expensive. Do you want a new kinetik battery or a used one? Go to the car audio classifieds forum on look to c if anyone has any for sale.....

I would buy new and get a warranty, also helps to buy from a place you trust.
