the 2013 watts are lower than to other years its like 560w or close to that the older ones were in the 700 range the xp has a larger battery so you might be on the edge

 

I'm not certain you can upgrade the charging system on the new XP. You will probably be better off by adding a second battery, and putting them both on a battery tender when in storage.

 

I have the same accessories that you do, plus 1000 watts of amps. I switched to an Odyssey battery and so far(knock on wood) I haven't had any problems.

 

Thanks for the info. Do you put it on a battery tender when you store it?

 

I run 40" Light Bar 10" Light Bar, Heated Seats, 2 Way Radio, Ipod ect cet on a 2013 2 seater machine .. I upgraded to a full size optima battery
and yes when I get home I plug it into a tender

I run heated seats, SSV 4 speaker system, dually d2 a-pillar lights, and a dually back up light. No issues on my XP. The biggest draw i saw on the batt was when the fan kicked on. LOL.

I as well use a battery tender. The rzrs dont have a alternator like a car. So using a tender after a heavy day of riding is critical IMO.

 

I run a 40" rigid, 10" Rigid, 2 Rigid d2 Duallys, 2 LED whips, 1000w stereo, 55 watt radio and rugged intercom. I have a yellow top optima and an odyssey in parallel. I run the stereo pretty much non stop anytime were are stopped for a break. I go 3 days without any issues. However I have a LVD (Low voltage disconnect) installed on my stereo and LED accent lights so that if the batteries ever drop below 11v it cuts power to everything so that I can always start the car. My car does not see a tender until I get back home. As long as you are not leaving stuff running for a long time with the car off you should be fine with the stock bat.

 

Thanks for all the info

 

According to the XP4 900 service manual:

Alternator Max Output:
(Built Before 3/16/2012) 750 Watts @ 3000 RPM
(Built On or After 3/16/2012) 650 Watts @ 7000 RPM

Not sure if it changed for 2013...

 

The 2013 Jagged X(Probably the same as XP4) says 570 watts at 3000 RPM.
570 watts / 12 volts is 47.5 amps of output at 3000 RPM
I assume that it makes more amps above 3000 rpm and less amps below 3000 rpm.
Mine has been fine with just 1 Odyssey, but I might add another with an isolater if I run into problems.
