[QUOTE="shredder1, post: 8899422, member: 658920"] Alt 100% in this case, its the heart of the charging system. Batteries including any type of lithium need recharge. Sometimes a legit 200A is enough especially when idle rpm charging is greater than a say 300A unit that needs 4000rpm to hit full charge. Interconnect is the overlooked elephant in the room. A 250A alt done right with even AGM batteries can support 4K albeit for a short period (60sec)... and if done right for that 60sec you'll be crackin' skulls. OP... upgrade the alternator and wire 1st. Once upgraded battery upgrades will come easily. Better battery clamps, larger wire and possibly an alternator lug scream what about my batteries? And its something that can be slept on for a bit once the charging system and wire has been upgraded. If done right less is more, but its a steep learning curve tbh [/QUOTE]
