haha, check the properties of the image(or red x in your case) and you an see it is hosted at photobcket LOL. Dumbass, it shows for me just fine, but I can't give you any tips on it, so here is a bump.

how about 0 gauge to 4 gauge distrobution block before the ed amps? and you dont want any fuses between the amps and bats? id ditch the interstate upfront and replace it with a smaller kinetik too

 

[darren700 10+ year member]

why have a distro block if i dont need it? do you really think that fuses between the back battery and the amps are necessary? its not like a 1ft wire is gonna short out anywhere... unless you think there is a possibility of a surge from the battery blowing the amp? is that even possible?

dont ground that one battery as much, run all the grounds you want to do to a battery.

Id Run rear Kinetik batt to the Alt & Leave the OE out of the loop..

For the one in the trunk I would Run the 1/0 to a Fused power distro block

Run the 4Awg to the eD Amps They Would Be fused at the power block

Same with the Hifonics.. but with the 1/0 AWG

I would also use a Grounding Dristo block the in from the battery

& then split off the the amps

>>KonFUSED 3Way Distro

>>KonFused Grounding System

That way each amp is fused at the disrto block & the amp Plus the inline at the batt

the Batt will charge via the alt..

Peace Troy

I say use the distro blocks to make it cleaner & fused for safty..

a fuse is cheaper than an amp..

ok i see what your saying, i already have the konfused block so i can use that for my ed amps, however i dont see the point of a ground distro block as i will just ground everything to my buss bars on the battery.. hmm now i have to find another 2 1/0 guage fuse holders for my goliath....

im still not sure i see the point of the fuses between the rear batts and the amps though... there is no possiblilty of that short of a run shorting out...

when you change wire size, you need to fuse. When running away from a batt, you need to fuse. Fusing from the batts to the amps would be a must, you meet BOTH qualifications there. the fuse from the alt to batt + isn't really necessary, neither is the 2 runs of 1/0.

For a permanent install, you do have the power wires from the front to the back fused the safest way.

there are a few manf. out that have dual fuse holders. I have the STINGER dual ANL. Hooker makes some with ring terminals. You might get off a little cheaper/easier that way.

i might mention also, you should keep your battery TYPES the same, so get an AGM up front.
