Im looking to upgrade my battery bank. Should I keep my hc800 in the trunk and add a hc2000 or sell both batteries in the trunk and add a hc 2400?

I would keep the HC800 and get the HC2000... It will be way better then just one HC2400.

You need to check what is the max discharge rate for hc800, if its low and you got like a ma 4000d amp, you know what happens next.

they will be fine. First of they are kinetiks so they have a relatively low ESR and the HC800 is not the only bat it will have the HC2000 with it.

idk, i have a pic of blown kinetiks, but i think they were running 2 hk4000ds

no, my bad , the amp blew, and they sprayed it with fire distinguisher. So it looked like a battey blew with all the white stuff around it.

Just wanting to make sure I got this right, have the redtop upfront with the 800 and the 2000 in the trunk? Which battery should be closest to the amps?

It doesn't Really Matter...If the batteries are charging then it doesn't But if your ALT isn't charging the batteries then your having problems...I would always connect the biggest one last.....Some one correct me If I am wrong

biggest one should usually be closest to the amp. And adding an HC2000 should be better than replacing the 800 with a 2400. The SPV35 is a bonus on top of that!

Im getting rid of the stinger battery and keeping the kinetik 800 and adding the 2000. So put the 2000 closest to the amps?

The 800 and 2000 will be in back?

Yep.

Sounds good but if you wanted to make it simple the 2400 would be what I would do. Then again selling stuff is another headache
