I'm doing abit of an install. I have got 2 Kicker amps that i will be running. The standard Vaux battery that is in at the mo is shite and doesnt last long without the engine running. Could do with a new one but dont know what to get. Install is not mega powerful so dont wanna spend money on a yellow top or summat like that.

Would it help by getting a battery for a diesel engined motor?

i had the same problem when i put my all my sub and amp in and upgraded all speakers. I got a Exide Classic battery for £30 for my local motor factors has been brilliant ever since never looses charge or anything like that.
