What battery for battery bank?

i was running just one D4700 up front for a year on a 2.5k setup and it did great only people who have never had Xspower claim there is batteries just as good for cheaper....I now have an Xp3000 in the rear too running close to 3.5k and its an absolute beast

I've got one XS D3100 right now. If I get my stuff sold, I'll get some more. If not, I'll get some Duracells and give a review

Here we go with the "I'm running this on that" BS. Most people don't actually know what they're really drawing at any point in time.

It's a daily ride, you're not going to notice much difference between different brands of batteries. There's a few respected brands, get what you can find a deal on.

If you dont want to get the most out of your equipment sure there is lots of other options than Xspower

Do you only run premium gas in your fusion? Because you're not getting the most out of your car if you don't.

I have the Duracell's in a few cars and they have held up great for the price.

Duracell for the win. I just ran two on a NS1 @1ohm daily and didn't have jack for drop. I love them and added two more because they are soo much cheaper. My vote is obviously for Duracell lol

I have a aq3500.1 4300rms and a ppi bk 800.4 800rms of a/b power ..i have a mechman 240 externally regulated charging at 15v...with 4 runs of 1/0 a 55ah duracell up front and 2 100ah dekas in the rear and big 3 of course

So you only drop .7 on just the batteries or with car running? Charging at 15v with a 240a alt is probably why not the batteries

Yea with car running at 1500rpm when my alt makes full power even if i was chargimg at 14.4 ....7 drop would be 13.7
