What battery should I look for or get?

[Boltonic 10+ year member]

I have the JL 300/4 and 500/1. What battery should I get for this set up? I have the stock battery for my 04 Civic right now. I want to add another one for my system.

I like the Optima Yellow Tops the best, if you don't want to spend the money for that then just make sure to get a deep cycle battery.

As if not using the search button was easy, there's already another thread on deep cycle batteries on first page //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Check out a deep cycle, like an SVR or Yellow Top...

Dam you guys are quick in replying to this. Here is my problem along with everyone who has a stock battery and a upgraded system. The systems kills the battery when its on accessory. I want to be able to not have to run to the car to watch dvd's or listen to music. So should I replace the battery with a more powerful one or just get another battery and put it in the trunk?

If its the 55 style, they arent power monsters....like 90RC and 500CCA.

The D31 is 900CCA and 210 RC

You tell us whats better

D31 is 900 CCA and 1125 CA fool //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Id get a D31 with an isolator, throw em in your trunk, and that should do pretty well for what you want.
