Yea I would think once you start doing it for a check it becomes work, I always like to help people with anything for no charge, but if I had to do it daily I think I would get pretty burnt out.

How would I find out if I have a Unibody car? Can I look at it and tell or do I need to dig up some info on it? -
Battery Wiring

I'm using 1/0 gauge, I just don't feel like taking out the seats to run it down the middle. I plan on deading it later on, so maybe I will just groud it to the frame and when I do that I will add the other run of gauge. Thx Josh -

Ok New Question guys, I have never hooked up a system with two batts, Do I need to a wire from both leads up front or can I use the Ground to act as a negative lead? -
So Today was kind of a let down. Due to weather we had to start late, ended up having to go over to my gramps to use his gargage. Then checked out the factory HU and no rca spots, Didn't wanna splice into the lines just for a week so I left it in there and got some wiring done. I may take out the seats if I have to run another line of gauge but I'm really not sure how to wire up 2 batts, so I just got this done so far.

so what is the point of a batcap? I know what they do, but why would you get one of those over a battery? Because they discharge faster? Or do they? -

When I got in a wreck I had two of them on my friends 4 12's and when I was in the hospital my dad went and took pics of the wreck and didn't know what the amps were and chunked them. LoL I didn't even relise it till like 2 months later.

A batcap is easier on your stock alt right? Or am I confused about that. -
Nah I think my dad got them for me as a joke. But I pimped that chit out, at caff.

To sum up, it's because of your sleep cycle. The grogginess and taking forever to truly wake up is a result of waking from the wrong stage of sleep. IIRC the normal person is on a 3 hour cycle, meaning it's best to get 3,6,or 9 hrs of sleep. but this varies hugely depending on the person. btw you can google the sleep cycles and see the different stages, i think there's 4. been a while since i've had that class There's actually a building nature on each sleep cycle, IIRC. I think it's like, for example, in your first cycle you have 90 minutes of stage 1-3 sleep, then 15 minutes of REM. Then on the next cycle, you maybe only have 80 minutes of stage 1-3 sleep, then 25 minutes of REM. It's something like that I believe. I just wish I could remember exactly. And I've always heard that you should sleep either less than 15 minutes or over 90. If you sleep under 15 minutes you don't get into deep sleep, which is when you feel groggy if you wake up in the middle of it. But after 90 minutes you've gone through a full cycle, and that's sort of a hump to go over in terms of waking alertness. But I would agree, you're just waking up in the wrong stage. But I do have a question for you, and that is when you sleep less than 5 hours are you tired earlier at night? If so, then that 5 hours isn't enough for you. What you really need to do is sleep until you naturally wake up. Do that a couple nights in a row to make up any sleep debt you may have, and on the last night however much you sleep is how much sleep you probably need every night. For me, I know I am getting enough sleep when I wake up naturally right before my alarm goes off. Actually I think it may just be that my internal clock is so good that it knows, and it hates the sound of my alarm as much as my conscious self does . But when I maybe cheat on getting to bed on time a couple nights in a row, I sleep until the alarm. Yea, I actually get naturally tired pretty early, anywhere from 9-10:30 but my schedule is so full I end up staying up till around 2-3 every night and waking up at 7. Not enough hours in the day =\ When I go to sleep when I feel I need to I have much better days and I wake up alot easier and feeling way more aware. But when I have to always force my self to stay awake, I end up getting restless and not being able to sleep.

So should I get a batcap? or a capcitor? Or see how it runs for now with the two batts and save up for a H/O Alt. -
I'm up in the air about getting one of these aswell, I would like to hear some of the input also

If you wanna throw some tweeters in the back, just snatch the 2 off your backpack instead of buying more ... that's awesome IMO, I had a pimped out bike when I was 13-14... It was decked out with tweets, 6x9's and a lil 6 i think haha
