probablies will be ok but if you can afford to uprate it then do it or just add a second one :y:

[Keefo]

hmmm ok!! will have a look at uprating it!

Not really got any clue how to add a second battery ot where to put it haha

[Predator_R32]

well you will need some 0 - 4 gauge cabling, a split charge relay and i think some 16 gauge wire theres a few guides on the net about doing a second battery

[Keefo]

will have a look as this is something i will be interested in, in the long run, but for the time being ill just uprate my current!

Tbh mate, you will probably be okay just buying a good quality after market battery i.e. bosch.

Im running 1150w rms off a bosch battery, and its fine, and has been for the past year:y:

Just make sure you use 0-4 gauge power cable. Thicker the better.]

And also uprate the big 3 to 0 gauge:y:

[Keefo]

yeah i got some 4 gauge cable from my last setup!

and ill probobly get someone to uprate the 3 for me as im abit lazy :-p haha

Well 4 gauge is a bare minimum tbh mate.

0 gauge would be the best bet.:y:

And definitley do tb3! You will get more power to your amps, less light dimming, more effiency etc...
