Sundown 1500d and size wire

[AnthonyO 10+ year member]

I'm Just wondering if I need to upgrade. I have 4 gauge OFC in my explorer now. I don't think the 1500 will need any bigger. But 1/0 isn't that expensive. On the fence. Help me out but please list a reason as to why you would or wouldn't upgrade.

It won't hurt at all. Depends on batts and alt

If you can you probably should you know you'll want to upgrade eventually.

what car has a 200amp stock alt?

Seriously, what kind of car are you driving? I might invest in one of those. I only have 80a stock and I'm running it on a skar 1500 and it holds up fine.

Its a 2014 Ford Explorer with the upgraded stock electrical. They have a 200amp alt with the upgrade.

Look up the 200A package on the 2014 Ford Explorer

The smallest the Ford Explorer comes with is 175amp
