Am running 2 FI 15 inch Q's with BP power on an AQ 2000 watt amp in a 2000 dodge dakota. I upgraded to a high output alternator (230 max output, i had it tested), and i have already completed the big 3 with 1/0 gauge wire. I am presently using a 850 CCA battery in the hood and have no space for a battery inside the truck. I am currently experiencing diming and since am not interested in using a Cap, i was woundering if i took out that battery and replace it with a kinetik 2000 or 2400 watts battery, would that solve the problem? Thanks

well if i am wrong i am sure someone can correct me. your battery under the hood can only support a 850rms system, but if you were to get a 2000 or 2400 (i would get the 2400) you could support a 2400rms setup!!

1) Would a 2400 fit under the hood of a dakota?

1) Would you go with a kinetik or batcap battery?

do not know if it will fit under hood or not. but could try what i am saying below.

what about in the bed of the truck you could get a couple battery boxes and relocate it all back there. they sell plastic tool boxes seen some one relocate to one of those before . don't know if you use the bed of the truck all the time for hauling lumber or dirt or not but it's a idea to do it there. they sell relocation kits at summit racing or you can build your own.

You need the largest battery you can fit under the hood if you can't spare the room for a second.

OK thanks guys

I have narrowed it down to either the Batcap 3000 or the Kinetik HC 2400. Any suggestions? Thanks

Hello? Anyone there????

Kinetik HC 2400 ... batcaps are normally used for burps or quick power unloads.

I found a place under the hood where i would be able to fit a Kinetik 1800 to go along with my 850 CCA battery. Would this be enough to stop the dimming problem

Any help guys?

That should do you justice since you have an ho alternator and stock battery. Since you said you cant fit another battery then go ahead if thats what can fit, buy a voltmeter(if you dont already have one) and watch your voltage.

Ok thanks man.
