[QUOTE="nate0, post: 8722307, member: 674948"] The main thing is complete the circuit and match the capacity of your total amperage draw. If your battery is capable of dumping 700-1000 amps in a single shot and you want that available for your amps, then beef up all runs to handle that load if possible. The battery reserve may not perform if you leave it out of the loop. Just like your front stock battery has 1 positive main and one negative main for like around 80-100amps, you would do the same for your reserve battery, where having 5 amps each with their own grounds then you should match that weight in positive feeds obviously then with negative run capacity to the frame from the battery. This is one main reason I hate running multiple amps. I have stuck with 2 amps for the longest time and probably will just do 2 amps until I am forced to run a third, because it becomes a spaghetti of welding cable all over the place... [/QUOTE]
