look at trying to get 8V batteries and wiring them positive to negative. i cant rememebr what the wiring is off the top of my head, but like four 8V give you 16V or something like that. i'm sure someone who's SPL oriented can explain it better.

2 x 8v battery's wired series gives you 16v......(us battery's) reasonably priced, cheeper than powermaster or kinetik, and pack a big punch

This might be a dumb question, but if a happy alternator is running around 14.5 volts, how does a 16 volt battery get fully charged in a vehicle?
