flashlight_65 Posted July 9, 2010 Report Posted July 9, 2010 does connecting the positive posts on multiple alts with short 1/0 jumpers help maintain your voltage or even necessary or is it better to just have one run per alt to a battery or buss bar? My builds: my caddy my 'hoe friends impala

CheezyMane13 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 Whats the distance that you have from the alt bank, to your battery, if its short I'd say just go from alt to battery, However I have seen pictures of people that run jumpers to each alt from another alt and then again to the battery from each alt. I guess IT couldn't hurt, only think I could see it do is help to buffer you current flow take baby steps, u cant do it all at once unless u have a roll of 100's big enough to choke a donkey 1998 Chevy Venture "Swagger Wagon" Kenwood Excelon KDC-X994 Headunit 3 15" Alpine Type R's in seperate T-Lines 1 RF T1500-1bd for 2 of the 15s 1 RF P1000-1bd for the single 15 3 sets of Hifonics Zeus ZXi6.5C Components( 1 more set to come for Front stage) 1 Hifonics HFi100.4 4-channel amp Stock alt for now (DC HO SPL 400A when funds come in,currently working on buying this) Stock battery and one Optima Redtop for now (looking at XS batteries) 3 15" Alpine Type R's (aka Swagger Wagon Build 1.0) Swagger Wagon Build 2.0 Youtube Videos
audiofanaticz Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 my 3 alts are all linked together from alt to alt to alt, and then each alt has an additional 3/0 wire going from alt to rear batteries.
flashlight_65 Posted July 11, 2010 Author Report Posted July 11, 2010 so there's not problem linking them together and still having a fuse close to it running to the buss bar that will also be fused My builds: my caddy my 'hoe friends impala

audiofanaticz Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 do you just have it fused at the rear or near the alt too? Technically you should have it fused everywhere Between each link wire on each alt. On the wire(s) from the alt(s) going to the rear, and then again in the rear. Anywhere a wire would run thru or under the vehicles body that has a chance to be melted, worn, torn, spliced, cut, etc. Me however... LoL Fuses cost to much money... Only fuses are in my two 4 channel amps.
