[QUOTE="AK_Icerally, post: 5108973, member: 603096"] Hey i found this website last night and it has tons of useful information i like it so i decided to become a member. I love car audio i own a 1998 f-150 4.6l v8. I have: Alpine IVA W505 touch screen. JL audio a2150 amp. JL audio 5x7 door speakers. JL audio Slash series 500/1 sub amp. JL audio 10w7 subwoofer. Im running this off one battery and its pulling alot of volts dimming my headlights alot. I have not done the BIG3 yet but im going to today. Once im done with that i'll see how everything works. Ok heres my question now.. I dont know how to hook up two batteries. From what I THINK I know, I can hook them directly to each other. like - to -, + to + with a good 4ga cable. and have the two amps running from the [B]2nd battery positive[/B]. While grounding the amps to the [B]Body[/B] and the [B]negative terminal[/B] on 2nd battery. Is this correct? Is there a link to correctly hooking up dual batteries. Thanks everyone [/QUOTE]
