I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO ADD A SECOND BATTERY INTO MY TRUCK AND HOW TO WIRE IT UP? I HAVE A 200AMP ALTERNATOR & I AM NOT SURE IF I SHOULD USE AN ISOLATOR AND RUN A BATTERY TO THE BACK OR HAVE MY BATTERIES UNDER THE HOOD AND RUN THEM PARRELL?

I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF PUTTING MY STEREO IN AND I NEED THE EXTRA POWER FOR
1- KICKER SX1250.1
1- KICKER SX700.4
2- KICKER S15L7 4 OHM

AND I JUST BOUGHT A 10 FARAD CAPACITOR BANK TO HELP OUT.
I AM INSTALLING EVERYTHING MYSELF SO IF ANYONE HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE LET ME KNOW

THANKS

It would be best to run an isolator and mound the other battery in the back.This seperates the stereo like its own circut!
