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 :D

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.
