2nd battery...
So I've moved this discussion to another thread, as to try not derail from the original post.
If we have the second battery, will we be able to draw more amperage for the amps? Considering the bike itself draws somewhere around 20 amps to run from what I've read.
I'm trying to wrap my head around all of this.

No not "more" juice.
Just a left over battery to start your bike when your amps shut off!!
Think of it as one power source for your amps, and one power source for the rest of your bike. You can parking lot pimp longer and still ride home.

I was hoping that since it was pulling from one battery that it would open up more for the "extra" goodies on my ride!

Ok...then how is it that some guys are running 3 amps? Others have made mention of running 5. Yet people I know can get anymore sound out of 3 amps than they can with 2? If someone out there has more knowledge, please chime in! This unicorn has got me by the nads...I've also came across these

Just to elaborate on what I read. He's running 2- JL 400/2 1- JL 600/1 a micro 4 and a micro 2. He's running a two battery setup with everything wired off of the vmax battery....

LOL "DUDE" Two amps MAX is all you'll ever need with these bikes. Three is overkill unless you're getting into the competition game. The charging system on bikes 2006 up will handle two class D amps without a problem. You can even "Parking lot pimp"for about 40 minutes and still ride home.
