    I have a 400 watt pioneer amp running the speakers in my truck. No sub or anything like that and I can play for about 2 hours. After 2 hours the amp automatically kicks itself out once the voltage has dropped too much. I then can still easily crank the truck but I can tell the battery is down some. I am 1st gen though.
