I have a single large house bank, and a small separate starting battery. Its a Group U1, about 35 Amp-Hours. It has plenty of power to crank the A4, but the truth is that its only there as a backup, as I never run the house bank below 50%, and its still able to crank the A4 at that level.

Unlike a diesel, the A4 has a pretty low cranking current (around 60 amps I believe)
