Been there, done that. When I ran the KW kicker in the semi it sucked so much
power that I had to put the fuel pump on "Manual" so that the power drain
didn't drop out the solenoid and cause the engine to die. That's where I
learned about extra batteries and welder's whip lead for (really fat) battery
cables.

When I was in a truck stop at night and talked using the extra power trailer
marker lights around me for some distance would light up.  Bv)=  Sort of talk
on Channel 19 (Sesame Street) and bleed into all channels. When I talked,
everybody listened. I soon learned that did not make me popular among my fellow
drivers and to kill the kicker when sitting in the lot.

ENJOY!!!
