[QUOTE="Dafaseles, post: 8752531, member: 681482"] I didn't even see it was a 2500. Sorry. I must have just glanced over that (even though it's in the first line lol). Well, I used to run 4 JX1000.1's and 2 JX400.4's on a mechman 370 and 160 AH of Stinger AGM (2 SPP1500DC's) with no voltage issues. So, if I had to guess, I'm saying it's those Optima batteries just not up for the challenge. But I've reread your initial post a couple times and it doesn't say how many runs you have between your alternator and your batteries and how many you have between your batteries. (If it does, I'm sorry). If you're only doing 1 run off 1/0 cable between each, it could just be that not enough current is getting to your batteries efficiently or fast enough to keep those batteries fed nicely. [/QUOTE]
