[QUOTE="loopkiller, post: 5567869, member: 601690"] Depending on the vehicle, you will want to go with the largest HO alt you can. If it is a US V8, that will probably be a 300a. EA has a new line of 350a alts coming out as well. As for the batteries, one HC2400 per amp. Also consider using one for under the hood replacement if you do not plan on isolating the rear batteries. If the HO alt cannot keep up for your daily use, Kinetik makes a 80a power supply that will help keep the batteries charged. You hard wire it to the batteries and then simply plug it into the wall when you park it. It recharges the batteries while it is parked and also maintains them as well. It is safe to charge them everyday, but would likely only need to do it once a week or so. [/QUOTE]
