I am in the process of setting up a system in my '01 4.7L V8 Durango. The system is going to include:
Kenwood KVT-514 HU w KNA-G510 GPS unit
Rockford T1000-1bd for the subs
Rockford T-400-4 for the mids & highs
3 12" Alpine Type R subs in a ported box
4 6.5" P1S652 speakers for the doors
I am considering installing a 2nd battery and isolating it so that I can run the system when the truck is off w out worrying about killing the starting battery and also so that I don't have to worry about the batteries killing each other. I have the stock alternator in the vehicle which I think runs at 136 AMPs.
My questions are:
1) Is a 140 AMP isolator good enough? Should I go with something larger like a 200 AMP one?
2) What's the difference between say a Stinger 200 Amp Battery Relay Isolator SR200 SGP32 (eBay) and a NOCO IGD-200HP (eBay)?
3) Which type of isolator would be best for what I am looking to do?
Thanks in advance!
