Sub install in a Nissan leaf (electric car) dual 15s

[Bazzheadnorway]

I have two cerwin vega 15s that i want to wire up in a nissan leaf, considering it is electric i wont be connecting the system to the batteries that the car has. Not even the 12v one, too much of a hassle and i have not seen anyone do it so:

I plan to use two 105ah batteries in parallel making the battery bank 210ah at 12v

I would only be hooking up a 700-1000w amp (JBL 751.1EZ )

And yes i would be charging the batteries at night every 2nd day or s

Sounds doable? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I have a substage in my MKZ Hybrid. The car doesn't have an alternator so I'm limited on current draw although I'm not sure exactly how much. Anyway, I wired to the car's cranking battery which is located in the trunk and haven't noticed any issues even when it's running on just electric. MPG hasn't changed and it operates exactly the same as it always did. Does a Leaf have an auxiliary 12 volt battery in it already? If so I wouldn't hesitate to use it after installing in my car.

Your voltage will still drop very fast even with a bigger battery bank. Might want to go with lifepo4 batteries instead like limitless or jy power.

True but i just picked these batteries up 2nd hand for 40$ for both of them (cost around 120$ a peace here in norway) so im hoping to have some use for them small generator in the boot? Haha
