[QUOTE="Supergumby5000, post: 6787374, member: 563237"] As nateberrier stated, mathematically you cannot, but that is assuming that you want to run it full tilt 24/7. you can compensate for lesser charging by having a larger than needed battery bank. Ideally (assuming you have an adequate charging system), you would want an amp of battery for every rms watt (so 8k amps). Thus, even three kinetik 2400's wouldnt be enough. Obviously, you can use one alternator and three kinetik 2400's. but you WILL have voltage drops. If you want to run one alternator, i would get a healthy battery bank, at least 10k+amps, but ideally you would want at least two alternators and at least 8kamps worth of battery [/QUOTE]
