need battery suggestions...

[Frank20]

Hey everyone, im in the market to buy a bigger, better battery to upgrade my audio system in my 2003 camry. I recently performed the BIG 3 upgrade on my car and i did notice a sensible increase in voltage after the upgrade. I got an increase from 12.5v to about 14.0v at idle. But regardless my lights still dim quite a bit when my bass hits at a higher volume. I was hoping a better batttery would help this out before i decide to go and get my alternator re-wound from its original 80 amps to 110 amps. Anyways im leaning towards an Optima Red Top 34r or 35. But i have also been looking at Stinger batteries. Does anyone know of any other alternative besides these 2 companies. Take into consideration also that i need reverse terminals. I can't seem to find any stinger batteries with the reversed top posts. Any information or suggestions would be appreciated.

Try looking at Odyssey batteries too.

you want a yellow top optima

i will get flamed from this but if your =on a budget a duralast gold is eqivalent (yellow top too) to the optima. same cca same reserve but not the name. work real whell for audio systems and im sure they have reverse top post.

Blue or a Yellow top Optima for me, but an Odyssey battery would be nice too.

I hear on and off which ty[e is best, but i've heard much more often that the red top is not the best for car audio, and I will stick by that... as the red top is a starting battery. I got the blue because its the exact same deep cycle as the yellow, but has assesory posts so you can hook up more things to the battery.

I put a Duralast Gold in my 94 Corolla and the dimming of the headlights is no longer noticable no matter how high I crank the volume. They used to dim considerably with the generic battery I had. Again, if you are on a budget, its a good option to consider.

I just purchased a yellow top for my audio install, the best price I found on line was at www.batteriesareus.com they have them for 140. something but they will hit you with shipping. neverless they are still the cheapest.
