Is my battery good enough?

[Mcthings]

Hi, (1997 Toyota Camry)

I have just a regular battery in my car. Nothing special. No optima yellow top or whatever, just a normal one (I can check the specific checks if need be, but...)

I just ordered a bunch of audio equipment:
Rockford Fosgate Punch Stage 2 10" Dual 4-ohm Component Subwoofer
Q-Logic QLT-.6510SS Single 10" Truck Box-Vol=.65 cubic ft.
Profile AP700M 220W x 1 Car Amp
Profile AP740 60W x 4 Car Amp

and things that I already have are a pretty nice alpine deck, 4 nice pioneer speakers, a on dash sat radio, and an on dash nav system.

Do I need to look at geting a seperate battery for all of this gear? I am afraid I am going to run down this battery too much with all of my gear.

Any help would be great, thanks!!!

dont worry about getting a new battery...that system shouldnt pull very much juice. If you want to make a cheap mod that will help you a little bit, upgrade your alternator cables to a bigger size. This will help keep your battery charge sustained.

i kind of have the same worry... tonight when i was driving on the freeway back home, i was blasting my music and i noticed my lights dim way too much along with the beat of the bass, enough to distract me while driving ... more than the loud music. it seems normal since im blasting the system but does it hurt the battery, lights or other electronic components in the car? i dont think its bad enough to blow a fuse while driving but my main concern is what it might do to an HID kit once i get it installed. i know those bulbs are very sensitive... is a capacitor my only solution?

I would definitely upgrade if you're going with HID's. Capacitors are useless from what I hear. You may want to do the "Big 3" upgrade http://forum.sounddomain.com/forum/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=007801;p= or get a ground kit http://www.v6performance.net/store/product_info.php?products_id=85&osCsid=4a9dfba303d56110a11a3de10bdcabc8.

As far as Mcthings, you should be fine with your OEM battery.
