[QUOTE="528hz, post: 7266456, member: 581076"] Ofcourse you need 4! LOL! You can never have too much battery... To be honest with you, I can't tell you off the top of my head, as I'm not even going to pretend I know all about batts. But I've owned a number of Yellow Tops, and most of them went completely bad on me. Not trying to sway you in any way, but I was using the Yellow Top in the engine bay as the main battery; deep cycle batteries aren't meant to be run in short power-despersing durations which is why you see so many of them die quickly when run under the hood as a primary. Frequent, short discharges just slowly kill Optimas. This is why I kept killing Yellow tops. The Batcap on the other hand operates like a battery AND a capictor. It will discharge 80-90% of it's power when the draw is needed, but recharge very quickly as well. I always thought of them as a "charged capacitor with no middle man..." [/QUOTE]
