[BreakDaLaw 10+ year member]

ok so im going to be powering my HK4000d and need to know which battery opition would you guys do.

2 Kintik HC800-$230

1 HC1400-$200

1 HC2400-$260

1 Deka 9A31-$170

Im thinking the 2400 would be all i needed...with big 3 and the 200a alternator to make this run good

if you're on a tight budget, the deka would be best

2400 in the rear, and whatever you can squeeze under the hood, 1200 or 1400 maybe?

its goning to be hard as hell to fit two dekas or kinteks in my car.... so what about doing like TI said and putting a 2400 in back and a 1400 in the front

and seeing as that i own a crappy cavalier it doesnt have a volt meter on it could i use this as one...

it plugs in the the cig lighter and is supposed to show the condition of your battery

you could get away with a single 2400 in the rear and not even have anything under the hood, but if you can afford both you will be in good shape with both. i have a stinger digital volt meter than is just a 3 wire hook up. i put it into my dash and hard wired it to my rear battery terminals

powermaster d2400 up front with a d3100 in the back would be the best IMO

Go with the kinetiks!!!!!!!

 

[BreakDaLaw 10+ year member]

ok so im ive come up with two choices even though i know which one yall will choose...i will running either one(either the two dekas or the hc) for around 2-3 months untill i can save up enough to buy another one....

2 Dekas(maybe a smaller kintick later on)

or 1 HC2400 in the back (2nd one later on down the road)

1 HC2400 in the back (2nd one later on down the road)

just make sure when you bypass your front battery for now, you leave enough wire to cut/add two ring terminals where the 2nd battery is going to go. or do it now and just put something like a fuse block where the battery is going to be
