I am going to have two 1500 watt rms amps for my subs and a 300 watt amp for my mids. With a total ammount of 3300 peak watts. I already have a 180 amp alternator, and my lights dim when my bass hits with only one amp. So Ive talked to a few people, and everyone says to power that much I will need some yellow top optima batterys. How many will I need? If I get three, one under the hood, and one for each 1500 watt amp will that be enough? Will my lights still dim, and will my car support that much power, with the alt and batterys? And will I constantly have to wait for my batteries to charge every day? Thank you for your time and comments!!! |
