loganuf Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 ok thanks,if i have 4 batts, i run a wire across all the POSITIVES, A wire across the NEGITIVES, and then ground each battery? right.. yup. u could either run wire or you could use copper buss bars instead, much cleaner IMO Quote 2000 Eddie Bauer Expedition: Alpine CDA 9883 2x 18" DC lvl 4 D2 10.7 cu ft box 33hz knu 1/0 wire amp: Kicker ZX2500.1 Kinetik

SAME WITH THE NEGITIVE SIDE??? how does that work?? you don't have to fuse b/t each battery. Only if they are far apart. The whole point to fusing is to stop a short circuit from happening. So if you only have 6in of wire b/t the rear batteries, then your chances of a short circuit is slim. So I would just fuse b/t your positive run(s) from the front battery to the back and b/t the amps and batteries. Bus bars are just as good if you get them large enough IIRC. Plus, they look a lot better. Quote
