[QUOTE="johnecon2001, post: 582848, member: 556589"] The fact that you think adding a second battery is foolish makes me want to slap you. or something. In all reality, if you have the cash.. adding a battery is a great idea! Your car battery was chosen for your vehicle with all of the electrical components in the car tallied up to a final load. The engineers never expected you to add more of a load to the stock battery. So the current one will just power all of the normal accesories. When you add a second battery, you take all of the system strain off of the first battery and add it to the one that has no prior commitments to anything. The other option you can look into doing, if the thought of wiring an additional battery to your system frightens you.. is to simply buy a better or bigger battery. There are hundreds of choices out there. Overall, the second battery idea is a good one. Don't let anyone tell you different. It is a little more difficult to wire it all in and make it work good... and just adding a bigger one will be simpler. But you make the decision. [/QUOTE]
