[QUOTE="noleafclover803, post: 506850, member: 551621"] Thanks for the advice. I didn't think about adding more batteries, but that makes sense. The only problem I run into now is where we will be getting the power. The only car we have with a trailer hookup is an expedition - which isn't wired for an additional stereo (its his mom's car actually, he has a firebird so no towing with that). We *might* be able to wire it, but we're not sure. My car (mitsu eclipse) is already wired with 4 gauge, and I don't mind ripping crap up to re-wire it with 0/1 either. The problem would be if we can't get permission to wire the expedition (although we could just run it loosely each time, not even hide the wire I guess) and I have to use my car to power. If the trailer is not hooked up to a ball on my car, there is no way to ground it back to my battery. Maybe I could make some type of metal rods to run between my car frame and the trailer? Would that work? I'm heading over to the workshop we're building in later today and I"ll take some pictures. [/QUOTE]
