Ok so if I buy another battery and put it out back, how do I hook this up to my system? Would I have to run like 10 guage wire through my truck to my altenator? Would the amp then just take the power from that battery?

i'd say they're not much on ebay. i was looking for an xx goliath the other day and it was 800 bucks when you look anywhere else it's 1200-1500 dollars.

what you do is take 4ga or 1/0 gauge from your front battery positive back to a fuse 6 inches from your 2nd battery. then take another small piece of the same gauge wire from the fuse to the positive post on the 2nd battery. then take another wire of the same gauge from the positive post to another fuse 6 inches from the battery, then take another from that fuse to your amp. then ground the 2nd battery out, and ground your amp and thats it. it may sound confusing but it's simple. if you have any questions let me know

i wanted to do 4ga because i have like 20 ft left over from another install but i decided not to...also i see alot of people saying 1/0 ga is 3-7 dollars a ft. welll this is the stuff i use it's 1.75 a ft. http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KLM0BL 5,145 strands in each run. and if you check stingers website there best 1/0ga only has 4,284 strands and thats the stuff thats around $7 a ft. So the knu konceptz is pretty good wire especially for the price
