Post Number: 2845 Registered: Feb-06 | red top, can give you around 2k crakin amps in the first 1 second so u can start u car easily, but then the amps juzz get low up to 600 amps so thats why they are goodd juzz fors starting get a red top on hood, and get two hc1400 in the back and near the amps put a hc600 and forget about dimmin im running that kind a mount in my car i have a hc600 and a red top and i still have dimming but im runnin close to 3000 rms |
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 2213 Registered: Jan-06 | you dont need a red top, even the hc600 will start a car, a yellow top will easily start a car too. dont waste money on a red top. just get that hc2000 you found on ebay and if you still need more battery power get an hc800 in the back |

Post Number: 2850 Registered: Feb-06 | one hc2000 in the hood is not gonna make everything better except if he has at least a 290 amps alternator but at idlin he will still have dimmin wat he can do is put a hc1400 hood and a hc2000 in the back and near the amps a hc600 |
Silver Member Username: Avirex64Vallejo, CA United States Post Number: 199 Registered: Sep-06 | so 3 batterys?????? I got a 220 amp alt and its like 120 amp at idle, so I still need 3 batts??? |
Silver Member Username: Seth_walkerU.S.A. Post Number: 169 Registered: Jul-05 | I think you'd be fine with the hc1400 under the hood and the hc2000 in the back. if you can only get one battery now i'd make it a hc2000 and put that under the hood. |
Gold Member Username: James1115Use a simple... Post Number: 7762 Registered: Dec-04 | I wasnt telling you to get 2 batteries I was just telling you that red top's are more for under the hood and yellow tops are more for in the car. I would go with kinetic's. |
Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Im pushing i... And pushing ... Post Number: 2853 Registered: Feb-06 | yes u still need more batteries, i have a 180 and 120 at idle alternator on almost 3000 rms and i still have dimming with two batteries and a cap, ull need 3 batteries u can do with 2 but u still gonna have dimming not a major dimming but alil dimming. wat u can do is get a 2400h in engine and another one in the back but it wilg et more expensive |

Gold Member Username: James1115Use a simple... Post Number: 7773 Registered: Dec-04 | the 2400's are 75 pounds/piece. Most cars wont fit them under the hood so I would check before reccomending that. |
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, OR U.S. Post Number: 4460 Registered: Oct-05 | i would get a yellow under the hood reds and yellows are pretty similar and can both be used for under the hood, but reds have higher cranking amps, while yellows have higher reserve (more power for longer time) |
