[QUOTE="twisztdauthorit, post: 4522843, member: 574525"] can you elaborate? why only 100 amps and im guessing thats for 0awg only? What would gain more #1-[B]2x 0awg positives[/B] from up front to 2x batteries in the back and then to amps with a massive big 3 job #2-or [B]1x 0awg pos[/B] and [B]1x 0awg neg[/B] run up front to 2x batteries in the back and then an amp? Im thinking #2 is the way to go but to increase the amount of grounding capabilities id ground the negative cable from the battery to the rear so it will run through the 0awg and the frame. Will this cause a ground loop by any chance or just decrease the resistance of the circuit helping with voltage drop? [B]summary:[/B] I have 2 runs of 0awg. 15+ feet of 4 awg Big 3 is done with 1x0awg and 2x4awg 137 amp alternator.(for now) 1 stock battery plus 2 dekas(850CA) what can i do to minimize my voltage drop. It will be powering and orion 2500d and an orion 8004 so around 3k wattsif im lucky [/QUOTE]
