Tuesday, July 21, 2009 5:27 PM
hello guys .. im having a huge battery problem i have change batteries twice withing this year, and for some reason the batteries keep dieing on me, and i dont know why ,

here is my setup,
2 woofers of 250 watts each . both sony
2 amps 1 of 800 watts and the other 900 watts both kenwood
door speakers of 350 each and the ones in the back are factory speakers from an Hyundai accent .. :S
crappy sony radio and kennwood equalizer
big 3

thats it ... and both batteries that a have purchased had 620 amp .. it should handle that setup just fine right .. ?

problems :
cant leave the car off for more than 3 days otherwise the batter dies ..
cant sound with the car off for more than 30 minutes ..

and if any of those things happen .. the i start having problems at start as im having right know .. i recharged the battery already and everything and works for like a week just to start the car then aftera week it dies as it just happened

help please why is this happening ?

could be your alternator not charging the battery well....or maybe try a deep cycle battery...(optima yellow top) or something like that

get your battery load tested, and check for a parasitic drain.

red top is a starting only battery. yellow top is a dual purpose, deep cycle and starting battery.
