KLM vs Kolossus

[Ali1 10+ year member]

what's the difference between the KLM and the Kolosus wire for knukonceptz.com? it says they both have the same amount of strands, but one the kolosus can hold up to 300amps, while the KLM holds up to 250amps.

i just read the press release on the KLM, and this is what i make of it:
uses CCA aluminum strands

kolosus 1/0 is really the diameter of 2/0

KLM 1/0 is the diameter of 2/0 but conducts as well as normal 1/0

cheaper because less copper is used

i wish i would have know your kit just came out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif i've just ordered a bunch of piece parts to do the big three and a run to my amp in 1/0.

i posted that in another thread.

the KLM uses CCA (copper clad aluminum) to keep down costs, but it doesn't handle as much power. since kolosus is so oversized, the klm is the same size and can handle as much power as most 1/0 wires from other companies.

Its all in the press release:

CCA has a higher resistance then OFC, so to make CCA equal you need to make it larger. if you have a 36 gauge copper wire, you would need to have a 34 gauge CCA wire to be equal in resistance at 1000ft. Lucky for us, we only need 20ft usually. So the KLM being larger then standard 1/0 copper by about 30% is now equal in resistance.

The KLM is roughly equal to the eKo line and will remain a more stable price as the eKo line would have continued to climb in price with copper rates

Your a lazy bastard.

No.

But you can follow these very complicated instructions that you apparently couldn't figure out:

1. http://www.KnuKonceptz.com.

2. Click on Power Wire.

3. Click on KLM Kable.

4. Punch yourself in the face.

5. Harder.

Just repeat steps 4-5 until you develop a bit of capability. It will come.
