sounds really good so far, I'd get a nice battery for the back if you're having dimming/electrical issues and run them in parallel. that really should be all u need. U have decent electrical right now another battery would be perfect like a Deka, or yellowtop, or batcap, or something decent.

Electrical sounds good so far, a good main battery and maybe adding a 2nd smaller one in the back might help. I'd wait and see if you have dimming issues before spending money on extra batteries. If you do need a battery, a Kinetik HC800 or an HC1200 would help in the rear, small, cost effective and will handle the smaller system you have. Much better than an Optima Yellow top, and probably less $$ too..

Some people really like the kinetiks, I personally don't but thats just personal preference. I believe an HC1200 would be a bit cheaper.

An XS Power batt would be the best option, but for the price a Kinetik is a good option.
