[QUOTE="meistah, post: 2765097, member: 570512"] ok so i have a viper 1200.1...and for the life of me i couldnt figure out why the batt and grnd terminals are so small. then i was told that im supposed to use a distro block and use 8gauge wire for it.. now i know how distro blocks work...routing power from the large wire to fuses and smaller wires for multiple amps...but no matter how you cut it...the 8gauge wire is only going to provide like 5-600 watts AT BEST for the amp...which is very inadequate... can anyone explain this to me? i read up on it on bcae1 or whatever but even that guy said that it wasnt a good idea... if this isnt making sense just say so and ill try to reword it better, lol [/QUOTE]
