01ExSport Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Shouldn't have any problems with the stock alt charging those batts, since alot of people use battery banks to make up for a small alt when running more power than it can support.

moh.vze.com Posted March 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Would it be a waste to run 250A fuses when the wire is rated at 300A?

01ExSport Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Where at exactly? If the DC requires 2x250's, use them inline from back batt to it, but if you mean in all the fuse holders, you might pop them with the added draw of your 4 channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01ExSport Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Well, the DC5k has a fuse rating of 500, so 250 on each run just for that, plus the PPI would put you over, honestly you should more than likely be just fine, but i'd go 300 because I hate when something small like that goes wrong, especially if I dont have extra fuses on hand.

moh.vze.com Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 I'm still trying to find a place to do my 4 runs of 1/0. Here's a picture of where my 4 AWG run went. It went through the steering wheel rubber thing. I am thinking about just drilling a big hole under it through the rubber but I'm not sure if this is a good idea because I don't know what would happen if it were to get caught on the steering wheel rod when i do turns. Underhood view: Under the wheel view: Here's where I was thinking about drilling the holes through the rubber where my thumb is: Here's a picture of where some of the car's stock wiring went through. The only problem is when I go under the hood on the otherside, I can't seem to find its pathway because the stock stuff covers it. Also if you take a look at the picture above, I'm also thinking about doing my runs through where that red and white wire went through top right of the pic. Any ideas guys?

moh.vze.com Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Got my 4 holes ready for the runs. They're not water proof grommets though. Will this be a problem?
