Extra battery

[420boom]

Hi all, first let me just say im new to the board but from what i read i feel pretty comfortable with all these guru's around. Apologize if this is in the wrong thread, but my issue is I have gone through 3 car batteries in less than a month. I am running 2 800 watt amps that power 6 12"s. When I dont have the car started it tends to kill the battery rather quickly. Im just wonder aside from a seperate car battery what else would i need to get the amps to run off their own designated battery?

well one thing you could do is get a deep-cycle battery so whenever you run it out, you can just charge it up again with no damage to that battery

does it just charge it self, and is that a battery that replaces the car battery or is that one i would use specifically to the amps

you can replace your main battery with it

no, it does not charge itself, you would have to get a jump or something
