Electrical good enough?

[m0bile 0]

I'll be running a sundown 1200D and a sundown 100.4D to a Fi BL 12'' and a set of hertz HSK 165's

Going in a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500.

Big 3 will be done

The battery that I have now is a Autocraft Silver.. It says on the top something like crank amps at 32 degrees is 935

The alternator that's on there is this:

Think I'll be good, or should I get a yellowtop to put under the hood?

Hook it all up and see what your voltage is..

If its dropping that bad try and get a bigger battery..

Yeah, I haven't installed yet so I don't know if it'll drop bad or not...

Should I just get 1 yellowtop under the hood or what?

My truck has an empty slot to put another battery on the other side above the right wheel...

Should I just pick up another autocraft or would it be better to run just 1 yellowtop

You might not even need another battery or anything..

Just hook everything up and see what your voltage is at then decide..

Instead of buying a yellow tip now and later you dont even need it..

Im just telling you what I would do..

A nice powermaster 2400 up front would be great

How much do the powermaster's run?

What is bad for a voltage drop?

If it drops below 12?

Anyone know any websites that sell the powermaster D2400 for around 200$

If your budget for a battery it $200 look into Deka Intimidators.

Jump on it?

Where'd you find it? If you don't jump on it, I will....... immediately.

Edit: after looking at the specs, that's not really that great.... my local parts supplier got me a dual post 825cca battery with a 110 ah capacity...... for $85.

I was thinking the 3100 series.
