long story short
My battery light was on but the truck ran and started fine. so i replaced the cable from batter to the alternator. solved the problem then the truck sat for 3 month and never ran be cause of transmission problems. got it back running and now it needs a new battery. i was using a good batter out my wife jeep so i could use the truck till i get a battery.
Now my battery light is back on and it flickers some times and other times it goes out and some time it stays on.
i have an explorer 190 amp alternator on it.
now i have a mile marker 9000k winch now and obviously it has a decent draw when using it.
so i need some advice before i go out and buy a new battery.
what should i get? deep cell? run dual batteries?
i thought about an optima but it blows my mind to spend that much.
i also run have several sets of light i run on the truck during the night time and a small sound system that will be going back in the truck.
im thinking about changing all my battery cables out too.
what do you guys think?
