[QUOTE="audiolife, post: 6848254, member: 541383"] More strain when ran down, when your system is pulling more than your alt can put out eventually you will run into where the battery draws more because it is drained more no matter its location, also the type of battery it is will determine how easy or hard that it is to charge. Also realize that no battery can recharge as fast as it discharges. Now a battery can bulk charge pretty fast when the car is running and the system is off or turned down but it wont get 100% and if it gets left too low too often and by the time you mix actual heat into the mix a battery can and will eventually sulfate and if it sulfates it makes a battery seem more dead than it is or will eventually crack the plates in a battery. It can be a very slow process (years) or semi quick (months) depending on how a battery is cared for. [/QUOTE]
