i have a jvc with 3 rca out put
got a regular 4 channel mtx it has a 40 a fuse dont even remember the model 200 W got myself my car amplifeir back from future shop after 5 month off repair mth jh1200 and it driving 2 sub into 1ohms at 1200 rms i was ready to plug everything back but my friend told me to add a 2 battery in the trunk since i have one new batt lying around it the same as the front one and i did the big 3 and running 0 gauge from the front to rear and i have a upgraded alternator 110 amp and a bit more unsure since my alternator is so small my real question are does adding a battery will help in anyway does adding a 2 battery hurt my alternator ? do i have to fuse the 2 amp i have 1 big main flat fuse near the front batt should i put 1 fuse on each wire going from the trunk batt to the amp ? and add and other fuse between the 2 battery ? and what size do i need to have on the fuse rating ? and here my drawing sorry im bad typing in english and drawing Attachment 11168 |
oh and ive been reading here for a long time this place his awesome and ive searched before i ask my question

Before you add a battery in your trunk make sure it is a sealed battery because a regular battery emits explosive hydrogen gas from normal use.
|
then ill wait and see down the road
|
Really you shouldn't need a 2nd battery for your setup unless you plan on playing it for long periods of time with the car off.
|
drive in theater during the summer with kid
|
In that case I'd suggest a nsb75 or nsb90 in the trunk. Your alt should have no issues charging them.
|
so even my motomaster should be fine with my small alternator since this was my greatest fear
but ill try and get myself a sealed battery even do a lot off people dont use them ....... and it has been sugested by a friend to use my new motomaster elimator just want to be sure no ill effect excetp more power when my engine his off and = more time to listen to music |
your diagram is fine. make sure you ground to the chassis of the frame. batts HATE shitty grounds.
and get a battery box or something if you dont plan on using a sealed batt, as i'm sure you wouldn't wanna mutate your kid over time from acid fumes. |
nope i love my kid that why ill find myself a sealed batt and then ill add that to the thing to do since i know my alternator can run 2 batt at the same time ill juste get a better 2 battery
thank you |
