is there any difference between running 2 runs of 0/1 straight from the amps to the batt vs. both runs going to a disto and then 1 run to the batt? thanks

two runs will have less resistance.

Yes the difference is the amount of current the run can handle.

two runs will have less resistance.

so you, personally, would go that route?

so 2 runs of 0/1 instead of a distro?

Depends on your current demands. How much power/ what amps are you running?

zx1500.1 and zx650.4

If the current draw is less than 250/300 amps for both of them, than one run of 0 ga is sufficient.

What size fuses are on your amps?

 

[dannyz122001 10+ year member]

150-200A on the 1500 and 80-100 on the 650.4

EDIT: just checked the manuals, its 150 and 80

As long as the total fuse value is below 325A you'll be fine.
