can someone measure 4gauge wire, the wire itself diameter? please

this is pretty stupid...

1. why cant you measure

2. 4 guage = 5.189mm or at least it is supposed to

3. if the amplifier only has a single 4 ga input then it doesnt need twice that there fore there will likely be no gain in using double that so why waste the time.

4. if someone was going to measure 4ga wire they need to know the exact wire you are using as manufacturers although they are not supposed to may vary a tad so someone elses measurements may not equal that of the wire you have.

stinger makes a 0ga to 4ga adapter

That would be useful were he using 1/0 ga wire however he is not.

cant measure a amp when i am in a machineshop,lol.

and ummm i have made adapters to put 2 0gauge wires in 1 0gauge input on amp and there is ALWAYS a gain.

the car was a idbl car,has a powermaster 200 alt ,couple optimas,2 0g runs from front to back of power. he went from 15s with 4k to 10s with 2k but the 2k died so it's 1500 time.

How long of a run of wire are we talking about. I said measure the wire yourself not the ampifier or maybe google the measurement of 4ga wire?
