Your system will draw power from the battery if you charging system can't produce enough. You can easily find a 9000 115Amp alternator and you just switch the pulley from your old one if ou want more charging. If you are drawing a lot from a reg batt then you will kill it but a deep cycle like the Optima can be drained 80% w/o damage to it. I plan on getting a batt gauge so I can see if I'm getting the Optima charged up again. My system is about 650 watts total output which I have cranked for extended periods and I have had no problems with 115 amp alternator and 950cca Optima deep cycle batt. Another nice thing about a powerful batt is your stereo doesn't cut out when you start the car.
Cheers, KB.
