Install finished but what battery should I get?
Here is my install.... I installed a Nintendo Wii and just wondering what a good battery would be? I want something that will hold a charge as long as possible under use without the engine running. A deep cycle?

Anything deep cycle will do, but for what you want, i would suggest running an extra batt in the trunk and getting rid of the capacitor.

X2 a second battery would be best!

way too much sq for me, but does that screen drop down from the trunk lid? thats nice.

you need either a Optima G31, NSB90 or Hawker 2150 battery. Good luck.

PS. nice cap!!

Completely redid my install (actually my buddie Shon did) so here it is... I ended up going with 2 12V35AH batteries in the trunk giving me 70AH reserve. I ran it for 3 hours the other night playing Wii etc and the voltage never dropped below 12.5V.
