[QUOTE="shizzzon, post: 8335661, member: 590338"] No why would it? I have personally tested current draw in context of resistance in a vehicle. The closest battery or bank to the source of the load is the primary location of power minus which device has the highest source of voltage. Although, skimping out on wire will increase resistance lowering that high voltage. By not having a battery in the rear, the cabling needs to not only handle the load from the alternator, not only enough cable runs to prevent voltage drop(for a 270, 2 4/0 power and 1 4/0 ground for maximum load) But now you have to run even more cable(if alternator is maxed out) to decrease the amount of resistance the load from the battery will induce from the length of the cabling. A lot of this resistance can be eliminated for free by moving it to the rear. [/QUOTE]
