I can have my blazer turned off and have my system running and my battery wont die for a long time. 2001blazer 11-21-2005, 08:55 PM hey thanks what does one of those batterys run price wise blazin97 11-21-2005, 11:03 PM optima batterys are kick ass. they will run you about $125 to $175 depending on which one you get. 2001blazer 11-21-2005, 11:25 PM geez thats alot for a battery and a capacitor....combined thats like $300 LittleDan911 11-23-2005, 01:57 AM Dude Yellow Top Is The Way Togo....I'm Getting Another One For Under The Hood Soon drkmelvin 11-24-2005, 02:02 PM They also have a lifetime warranty...Just remember, you get what you pay for, so don't scrimp on this one blazin97 11-25-2005, 05:12 PM $300 aint bad, I paid more than that for my cap, and reamped alt. zero psi 11-25-2005, 11:26 PM go with the optima! dry cell, viberation proof, excellant warrenty, they even look sweet! definately worth the money. blue_green_rider 12-02-2005, 05:53 AM have to agree with everyone here optima yellow top is the way to go although i've heard good things about red top also. FatRyan 12-04-2005, 10:36 AM Optimas bats are great bats. i dunno who said something bout a lifetime warranty, but mine only came with a 2 or 3 years warranty. but listen man, you dont need this stuff. if your current bat is dead/bad just get a nice diehard. and dont waste your money on a cap either. your running a pretty low wattage system. if your having problems with voltage drops, do the BIG 3. BIG 3 go buy a few feet of 4 or 0awg wire + connectors cut a piece that will go from your alternator's + bolt to your bat's + post, add connectors and tighten on do the same but this time go from your bats - post to a ground anywhere on the car and lastly do the same but go from a ground anywhere on the car to your engine block This will dramatically help voltage drops and will allow your alt to recharge the bat quicker. If the problem still persists, get a high output alternator. |
