Ok, So I just threw in a budget system in my beater rig. I've got a RF 1200D1, a RF 400x4 for my mids, and I'm running a pair of Soundquebed hd210's. I'm running 4 gauge OFC throughout, and I've I've completed 2 out of the three, of the big three,(I need to do the engine ground this weekend).
I installed everything, and now my lights are dimming pretty bad, even when highway driving. The battery gauge also trips completely off when I turn it up too loud.
1. I realize I need to address this, but I'm looking to do this cheap. If I had to do this one at a time, and cheap as possible, would you upgrade to an additional battery or a High output alternator first?
2. Any hookups that you guys know about on cheap batteries??
3. Bare minimum battery size, and alternator size I could get away with?
Thanks!
