Dual Batteries

I have been looking at the painless performance dual battery kit for my Suburban. It looks pretty straight forward and easy to install. I have used there products before but was curious if anyone had any personal experience with this kit. Thanks!

I thought the 454 came with dual batteries? A guy at school has a 95' and his came from the factory with duals.

I know the diesels came with two and I love having two in my Silverado. Came in handy a bunch of times!

Thanks for the feed back. How about durability? Did you have the kit for a long time?

I have painless' 4-Hi headlight kits on both my trucks for over two years and the still look and perform like new. I am curious if all there kits do so well.

454 doesnt require dual batteries. although due to production costs, alot of models were made available with them for ambulances and rvs. such like that. the kit you brought up earlier looks like it would work out great depending on what you are trying to accomodate.
