Good cheap wire...ish

If you want good cheap wiring, find 0 gauge welding cable on craigslist. It's $2/foot and all OFC

How many amps does it hold

[LZTYBRN]

How long of a run is it from your batts to amps? If it's short enough, you'll probably be able to do one positive and one negative run of CCA to each amp just fine. Otherwise, just go with the OFC... You could do 2 runs of CCA, but then you'd need dual inputs.

I will 2 + and - into each amp plus 4 + runs and 3-s..… and way about candece

Why would you do more positive runs than negative?

I've heard mixed reviews about cadence. I use their 4 gauge CCA, but only because I know my amp draws mush less than the wire can handle, and I would suggest the same.

it is approx the same as other 0awg and current kinda depends on distance

[SnowDrifter]

I'm not really sure how to answer that.. How many amps it can handle is dependent on your desired (lack of) voltage drop - which is dependent on how many runs you do, the length of said runs, and how many amps you are pulling.

I use this calculator for my needs. Try to keep voltage drop no more than 5%. Ideally, shoot for around 2.5%

the runs from batt to amps , batts to batts , same as grounds will be short.......the runs from alt to batts will be about 10-12 feet

smh, cadence is cheap for a reason, it is CCA, even if it says it is OFC it isnt.

if you cheap out on wire, you might as well not even do the build, watts are determined by voltage and amperage. What delivers the voltage and amperage you ask????? WIRE DOES. The more wire or less resistant wire aka OFC will cause less voltage drop from the resistance in the wire and carry amperage more efficiently to the amps or batteries. OFC is king shit because it is all copper, therefore expensive.

will do i guess i could go 100 ft on + and 50 on - for now and add more grounding later becuase i would like to ground the back batts to frame and where the 2nd alt is

[IdleSilence2580]

Knu OFC. I have it and love it. Looks good, very flexible, high strand count, and good price. Please, don't get CCA.
