[QUOTE="audiolife, post: 6848372, member: 541383"] Think of batteries as air tanks on a compressor, if and when there is more work to be done than the compressor motor puts out the reserve kicks in. In this case it is the battery. Kinetik is able to be deep cycled more so than a standard automotive battery so in regards the the system power is going to be drawn from the back battery before the front. As far as the big 3 goes I try to match it up with the rest of my wiring in size. In some cases I wouldn't use 0 ga on a stock alt due to some stock alts having small studs and or too tight of an area to fit the girth of the 0 ga terminal/wire without the wire touching something that is hot or the ring connector insulator.
