Space Issue for Batts...

Actually with a better designed box, or more efficient, wouldn't your amp see a lower ohm load more often. ( you wouldn't get as much box rise) so you would actually use more power and have lower voltage.. I'm only usin 4 xs batts for the nendo 5.5k and 1s a starting.. You should be fine with 2 supplementary batteries...

well in that case i have a battery under hood for the truck itself. then i have the 3 xtra batts. but only really enough room for the 2.

Yes the ones you took today I will comment on it also box is better wouldnt say super efficient

na i know its not super efficient or nothing but just rounded smooth insides, and more port area and what not. still double plated birch all the way around and of course the all thread front to back. i have 2 dial rods i can put in from top to bottom but idk if im going to or not.

no way a 3100 would fit under the hood in the Blazer
You'd probably be ok with 2, test it and see is the only real way to find out

true... what size batt would fit under the hood

Your 95 Blazer takes a group 75 Side terminal battery.

You could go with a Yellow Top 8042-218

or one of our AGM X2 Power Products the SLI75AGMDT

Either of those options will give you some extra capacity in your battery bank.

Let me know if you need help sourcing one. I'm work for the biggest battery retailer in the nation.

kew... thing is i would like to trade the 3rd one off for a batt if anything. also would a group 24 battery fit up there? i dont need side terminal batteries for the way my trucks wired. i have everything setup for top post under my hood including accessories.

xs d3400 is a popular batt for blazers....have to trim the tray a little for it to fit but other then that there's no problem. Get the xs ibar kit also and you can have the stock sidepost connection, and then connect all your extra **** on top of the battery
