[QUOTE="SlickNick, post: 5833605, member: 597045"] ^^^^yeah that. You DON'T need to fuse the ground at all but two on the power wire? I have a battery under the hood and a COMMERCIAL line Yellow top in the trunk (the BIG one) and the ONLY thing connecting them is ONE 0 gauge wire with ONE fuse in line (I think it's a 150 amp...not sure). As long as the second battery is grounded out on it's own, it would be a waste of time, money (0 gauge is TOO expensive) to be running a ground between the two (atleast if you're going front to back like me) as electricity runs through wires with less resistance (meaning the chassis ground and NOT the ground wire in between). Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
