[QUOTE="Graves, post: 8720860, member: 681362"] I can't think of any reason they connected to the fuse box and not the battery? The wiring is overkill but its more fun that way.:love: For the amps required to produce 400 watts, ~28 amps.. i would think you should have plenty of amps left even on a 110 and that leads me to think the alternator isn't producing all 110 amps maybe? You will get a voltage drop when the system is drawing more amps that the alternator can produce and they do go bad. So first I would have my connection to the battery NOT the fuse box (especially since you have 0 gauge ran and it will be very easy to do). Second, either your alternator is producing 110 amps and you need more production or 110 would be enough but you are not getting it. [/QUOTE]
