Considering two for my truck because the price is DUMB considering they're 130lb deep cycles.

I'm pretty sure the location I went to has agm and standard. Definitely following up, since I want to mount them sideways to save depth.

You're going to add 260lbs to your daily driver for what?

Reserve until I can afford to move up to a lithium.

I'm not saying don't do it, but consider the cost of the extra power from a bigger amp and all the extra weight. Is it really worth it in the end?

If you're serious just save for a HO alt, it'll cost more but it'll make everything easier.

Found a 220a for my truck for around 350, and I only plan on about 3500rms total for the Near future. I don't have anything against starting the upgrades with the alt.

Despite a decent price on one locally, I emailed singer this afternoon to see what he could cook up for me.
