Bronze Member Username: Hokiefan4life100Post Number: 20 Registered: May-07 | alright im running 2 12" SE's on a RE 12.1 and CDT HD-62's on a jl 300/2 and i killed my battery. I took my system out and im about to go buy a new battery. The guy told me that instead of getting a HO alt i could just get a 2nd battery, yellow or red top, and be alright. He said it would probably be about 150$ cheaper. Input on if this is true? Also, im proabably about to sell 1 of the SE's to someone on here if someone wants it, would 1 12" SE and the CDT's run on my stock alt and battery or what should i do then? |
