Sunday, May 07, 2006 - 17:26 GMT I was wondering if anyone knew how long it takes for the battery to go all the way down? AND what can I do so I can listen to music longer with the engine off? Besides a second battery.

Sunday, May 07, 2006 - 19:56 GMT its all dependant on the battery or batteries you are using and the watts/current you are pulling from them. don't know if theres any way to calculate it out.

Monday, May 08, 2006 - 04:45 GMT I always run my remote wire so that I can listen to the radio (without the subs) on ACC. And, letting your car idle for long preiods of time isn't good either. I learned that the hard way, a leaking radiator and cracked water pump later.
