just get one from autozone, and a duralast gold is a great battery and you will not use one up

Super Alt


There is an alternator called "Mean Grean," and it has enough power output to do most anything.

Exstream 4X4 trucks, and Jeeps use them to power over 1-Million candle light offroad lighting, and Limos use them to run a streached out car.
