Got a new 13.5 flip down monitor installed yesterday to add to my headrest monitors... The difference with this flip down from many is that it can swivel 360 degrees!! Ready 4 the shows...

That's really sharp! Gotta love the 360 screen!!
You have an Optima battery, right? How long can you run the screens with the car off? I have a newer standard battery (autozone) & can only run it for about 5 min. (1450 watt amp, aftermarket head unit & speakers, 2 12" Kicker Comp subs & the 3 screens).
Anyone know how to go about adding a second battery simply to run the toys off?

Nice add. What is it mounted to? Did they add a support?

Well I would only run my screens with the car running. I wouldnt try to run them just off the battery....Optima or not, it will run down, So I dont wanna be stranded at a car show...

LOL, I had that happen at Cruiserfest 2003. I was amazed that no one had jumper cables (I usually carry them too, but had taken them out of the car for the show). I eventually got jumped by a 'quick starter' that fried my tranny sensor, so I had to try & travel on the freeway in second gear (not happening). After about 15 restarts & half hour on the side of the road the sensor reset & we got home (1.5 hour drive) OK.
