Look at brands like Optima and Odessey. It is much better to upgrade the battery then to add a cap.

I looked into these batteries a few months back.
And I wouldnt touch them.

Yes they have uber cranking power, but they have no stamina.
A decent stereo would drain them flat in under half an hour without the car running.

I'd stick to a normal style battery, get something 450+CCA

WRONG

i ran my system at close to full volume for around 2.5 hours and had no problems with running out of charge.

i think its this battery (optima d-34) http://www.optimabatteries.com/products/pdf/D34.pd f

it was running 3 alpine V12 amps

EDIT: you may be right about them having less stamina than a normal battery (i have no idea about this), im just pointing out that your comment didnt apply in an actual application using one of these batteries under a high stereo load, they last ALOT longer than what you thought.

EDIT EDIT: why do i feel like im going to get flamed for this post lol Very Happy

, i read your other posts and still couldnt work out what conclusion you came to. hence this post
