Im currently running a Kinetik HC800 as the primary battery. I have also upgraded the Big 3. My car volts sit at 13.1 volts when off. And 14V when on. With the radio turned all the way up the lowest reading i get is 12.4V. So my question is would you consider my cars charging system sufficient enough to run my amp without running the risk of it burning my amp up? Do you think adding another HC800 would help stiffen my volts?
