[QUOTE="LM950, post: 8108756, member: 654711"] Ok I used the wrong wording maybe? I knew the point I was trying to make. I drew too much power through the thin wire and it started to melt and left burn marks on the insulation. The main question that I was trying to get answered was basically what are the odds that I basically pulled enough current through my wire to cause it not to receive enough current on the other end to power anything vs me causing my amp to malfunction. In a way I guess that I wanted someone to let me know that my amp would probably be ok since I didn't know when I would get a chance to find out for myself. I do understand how electricity works and that it could start a fire. I simply asked why would I record my car to see if it caught on fire when I clearly stated that I had already replaced the wire with new wire better suited for what I would be using it for. I'm guessing everyone just skims through posts and jumps to conclusions without first understanding exactly what the person is saying. [/QUOTE]
