[QUOTE="Insomniac119, post: 1111603, member: 557638"] Heres my situation. I'm on the verge of installing a 900wrms amplifier and something must be done about my electrical systom. My car is 24 years old. Not playing music at all, my lights dim (a very small amount) when I honk my horn, hit the brakes, turn the the heater, etc. I don't know if the factory alt has been replaced or not, but I think it's 70amps, and I'm not sure if this is normal for an older vehicle. If it wasn't for this problem I'd get a deap cycle battery and call it a day, but I'm worried that the alt is too week and will crap out on me after a while (could this happen?). So, bigger alternator or deap cycle battery? [/QUOTE]
