What do you have to do to put in a second battery?

had an optima red top in my 99 for 3 years strong with over 160 amps pulling from my system without a single issue with it!

old cheap advance battery i refuse to spend that much money for an optima not worth it in my opinion. Never had a problem with it and i have had it 2-3 years

Everyone has a different experience. I had 2 red tops for 10+ years across 3 different vehicles, one sits in the garage as my jump box and it has been out of a vehicle for 3 years.

I have a yellow top now and minus having one shourt out and get replaced free, it has been amazing.

ive heard alot of good things about the duralast golds...which will probably be my next battery when this one dies and i get my new carpet in finally

if you are running an insane system, i might recomend a deep cycle batter, or possibly adding a second battery.

I dont cheap it up on the battery myself... now i dont use optima either. Right now I have a duralast gold top, very nice battery and never have problems. However I think sears brand batteries are pretty nice and comes with a 5 year free replacment.
