What amp and sub(s) do you have? Pardon me if I ask these questions but it helps me answer your question better.

do the big 3 if you havnt already done it. what size alt do you have?

on the kicker 1500.1 and 400.4 you may be able to get away with running those with the big 3 only.

I have done big three and used 0 gauge and 0 gauge power and ground but its my work truck and want to run dual batterys for a power inverter and also want an isolater so i dont ever get stranded over using it in the field.I have seen all the posts about sams club agm batterys but they dont ship to calif and i dont have membership and dont want to get one just for this purchase. I see advance auto has them for 155 each just wondering if they are anygood ?
