it'll vary...if you have heaters, wipers on lights etc. then maybe....

to check your alternator is good enough.... borrow a multimeter of somebody if you can, and check that it is putting about 13 volts out with all the stuff going

if it is...your fine

if not...it'll slowly drain your battery

as long as the blue remote switch wire is connected it should be fine, i run 3 amps all off one battie and its normaly fine.

depends what amp it is as well, if its sumthin like an alpine monoblock jobbie it will amost certainly drain your battery wheras if its something like a sony explod u should be ok.
personally i am fitting another 2 batteries for my ice install!!! complete with split charging system and high output alternator!
