[QUOTE="badarsebikerst, post: 7124272, member: 627366"] ^^ Okay so I have a 80amp alternator and right now I have 5 gauge wiring for my 1500w amp and big 3 is done in 4 (just what I could get at the time) and on continuous full tilt it would drop to 12.5 but everything off and it holds steady at 14.2 If I were to upgrade my wiring to 1/0 gauge then would I see less of a voltage drop? Just asking because I have 50ft of 1/0 coming in tomorrow [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
