    2nd battery option on commander?

    Possibly thinking about adding a 2nd battery. Currently I have a 42" light bar running off the factory but I will have, 8" rear light bar and 2 kicker wakeboard speakers and a 1200 watt amp should I add a 2nd battery for my accessories or would stock be fine?

    i'm not sure of your electrical capacity on the commander maybe Steve will chime in but with a quality 1200 watt amp i'm thinking it would be a good idea

    Do you plan on adding a winch. With current mods and winch I think it would be very necessary. But even without the amp n speakers alone may leave u dead in a few without an isolator and extra battery so they don't pull from cranking battery.

    Already have a winch, but I feel it's not like I'm gunna have the light bar, and stereo on both at the same time all the time. And whenever I'm not riding it, (in the garage) I would leave it on a battery tender.

    do you run your battery in the stock battery compartment or did you have to move it or modify the compartment? and what battery/ amp hr do you recommend?
