[QUOTE="LiveAudio911, post: 6849190, member: 622999"] I basically Posted a complealty same topic more or less thread and some of the replies here on this one answered my question.. I'm sure I'm gonna get flamed but it seams to me on this topic is the following.. So basically from everything I have read and heard, a second battery will help but for only a short time.. it will add extra power to the system, but once you drain that extra power.. that battery, is pulling from the front.. and only covers up the obvious.. if the alt cant produce enough power to power the car and the audio system, then it does not matter how many extra bats your put in the car.. unless you upgrade the alt.. That seams to be the absolute... As far as the cal on Kin's website, this is cool and gerat information guys, but something I notice, is it still does not really clear up the obvious.. your still going to have the same problem.. so anyone thats lacking power, simply adding a second battery will not help with out having an alt that can produce the power needed.. Something else to remember is they are tring to sell something to you.. put in 600w or 1w and it will still tell you you need a second battery, which is false.. if your only pulling 600w rms and having issues then you are having problems with your electrical system... So in conclusion my POV is simply this.. for those that are only need short peek power meaning your listening to your music at a moderate level and only really cranking it up to full potential on those songs you just have to crank up.. then it might* do what you need it to do.. provide you the power in for a short time.. and have a chance to recharge it self once you decrese the volume back down.. But for those like me.. that pretty much listen at any given time to full potential full time.. pulling full RMS power.. once i drain the power and my alt cant keep up with the two bats, then I and someone like me are in the same boat.. See my problem is for my particular POS an upgraded alt can't be found.. and the only one I did find would have to be custom built as a one-off.. costing way too much than its actually worth.. But like I said.. from the information given, this is simply my POV and my understanding.. but i think its pretty safe to say it sounds" correct.. but I'm probably wrong because I have no clue in this area of things.. there is an auto electric shop here in town, I'm going to pay them a visit and see what they think.. screw the audio shops they are just wanting you to spend money..
