I'm not sure you'd need *anything* with a *single* amp like that... are you experiecing any electrical symptoms that are making you look at another battery? Have you run your 'big 3' wiring upgrade? That'd be the only thing you should even need to bother with.. I can't say I've ever needed anything else with *any* single amp system I've done.. "I'm finished!" - Daniel Plainview

Well I have done the big three and I have acap in my car and i just want to get rid of a littl hadlight and dme light dimming. Ihave read that a battery ad a HO Alt. would dobut i just do no have the moneyto get a HO right now so  battery was my first option.

Keep in mind that the yellow top is strictly a deep cycle battery & not intended for starting a vehicle. the red one is a deep cycle as well as starting. your better off getting a good strong car battery & if needed, upgrade to a stronger alternator or put yellow top in the trunk in the future.

This is incorrect. The Red Top is a standard, albiet highly durable, SLI battery. It is intentended for Starting, Lighting, and the Ignition. The Yellow Top is absolutely fine for starting your car and *is* the deep cycle variant. Battery technology is really complicated and suffice it to say that the chief difference is going to be performance under a steady load.. the Yellow top is much better as a car audio battery, as it can actually withstand the constant pull of tens of amps off your electrical system.    My personal experience with Red Top was fairly poor.. a kw of JL amps killed a brand new one in a weekend. The Yellow that replaced has been going strong for better than a year. Get a Yellow Top and be done with it."I'm finished!" - Daniel Plainview

The plus for the yellow top is that it has more durability then a usual battery. It can be drained completly and recharged. While a red top can't. Like a normal battery, if you drain it completly once or twice its done.

Thank you guys. I will get the yellow top then. For what Io have learned here is that it will start my car no problem, and it will keep up with my current draw. Thank you again.

Sure a yellow top will crank over an engine, but was it designed for cranking a engine? no. A car battery is more suitable for cranking. A yellow top is more of a battery to run auxillary components.
