Multiple Runs

[Nate197]

I dont understand when people have multiple runs of wire. Do they run a different set to different batteries or can you have two runs of 0 guage wiring to a second battery and how do you know if you need to run a second power wire. I am confused

Multiple runs equal more power.

Multiple runs equal more power.

Not entirely correct.

Multiple runs allow a better transfer of power from the front to back.

It's like saying that one hose will fill the pool. Multiple hoses will fill the pool faster as long as there is plenty of water pressure.

If you do more runs yes the power will transfer faster allowing the batteries to charge better thus allowing the amp to draw more power.

The down side will be if the alt is small on power, no matter how many runs you do, it can only charge so much
