Example the block draws 90 amps of current then 45 would come from front and rear. Here are the reasons I want to do this. 1.At most I'll only be able to run a 4g wire from my main battery, thru my firewall, to the trunk of my car. I've looked and looked and looked and that's the best I can get without taking quite a few obstacles out of the way. 2.I'm thinking of adding a second connection to the rear battery to use for some fans and neon lighting etc.. with a relay as shown on the bcae1 site. having the battery in the back would make this a much shorter connection and easier to setup. 3.I've seen that isolators and all of the other devices of its sort are really just to make sure you don't kill both of your batteries if you run your system for a long time without your alternator running. I almost never run my car stereo without having the car running. I am also planning on upgrading my current alternator so that it would be able to handle the current draw of my audio system and all of my cars electrical devices so I'm not in the mindset of thinking that two batteries will make up for the extra current draw in the long haul. Please any help would be appreciated |
