Alot of times I want to watch movies in my Ex.. but im of course afraid of draining my battery.. is there a way where i can watch movies with the engine off? is that what a capacitor does?

First, get an Optima yellow top battery. Second, get a voltage guage to watch the condition of the battery as you run it down.
 






Aren't eXplorers equiped with a devise to prevent the battery from being drained? I know when I leave my lights on they shut off on its own when the battery drains to the point where it would not start. Or maybe that's just part of my Alarm system. :rolleyes:
 












My factory lights shut off after 40 minutes. This only applies to the dome lights and the headlights though, any other stuff will stay on until the battery is dead.
