Kinetik batterys... need advice

if you can get a warranty on them from the local guy and maybe get him down a few bucks, its a deal in my mind...even if you dont get them cheaper, the warranty and no wait time are the big kicker in my mind...

just fyi, it wont help your alternator.

it wont really do anything but put more reserve energy to play when the car is off. and if you do that its gotta charge all 3 of them back up.

imo - a 2400 and a new alt for your next car is the way to go.

i would buy one of them local. i would then wait till i got the new car, and i would get a new alt.

thats just me.

that's what i was thinking, except i would probably do 2 of the 2400's just in case you know...

i think that is exactly what im going to do.... im pretty sure now that im going to buy them locally, use them till i get a new car, and then order an iraggi alternator for the new one. wont it help my alternator a little bit while im driving down the road with my shit cranked???

howcome 2 and not 3?

 

[infernobackman 10+ year member]

uhhmmmm....?

 

[rtillaree 10+ year member]

because with a proper electrical system, even one 2400 would probably suffice on 4kw+, 2 would be just over enough and 3 would be overkill...

is it stupid for me to get 3? or it is ok? or smart?

 

[infernobackman 10+ year member]

ok, let me put it this way... if i had an outragous amount of money.... would it be a good idea for me to get 3?

 

[rtillaree 10+ year member]

i honestly see it pointless to obtain 3 of them unless your going to be doing more than daily beating, unless you want to have an extra or sell it for a profit...it's not stupid to have an extra, i have an extra...but im also considering pushing close to 9000kw...

how many watts should i have for one 2400?

im probabally going to attend all the comps around here and show my shit off a lot to my friends, and their friends.. blah blah.... i have a stinger sp1700 right now, and its just not cutting it.

how many volts do the used Kinetik batts sit at?

But you really cant beat new batts that are cheaper than used ones. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
