Welding Cable - Is It Worth It?


Recommended Posts

Before you shout "yes", let me say that I'm not runnign4 18's or anythign like that. It's just a small SQ system.

I found some nice looking 2/0 welding cable online. It is not cheap; $8*0 (The * means nothing... I have to seperate the 8 and 0 or it maeks a face...) for 25 feet. I could use it for big 3, and + and - runs to the back. Is it really worth it, though. $160 just to run 2/0 to my rear batts seems expensive. I am willing to spend that much if you guys think it's worth it.

What I plan to run:

small stuff (HU, Sig. Boosters, EQ, ect.)

2 T1500-1bdCP

1 T400-4

1 T600-4

1 P200-2

Also, this is the cable I am talking about... Does it look any good?

Also, these are the terminals I am looking at. Again, do they look good?

I wouldn't pay extra for welding cable, but it's a good alternative when regular power wire isn't available. But for that price i'm pretty sure you can get a 50ft. spool of some decent power wire in 0ga.

Well, I don't know of any 2/0 "power wire". And this isn't really abotu welding cable, it's about 2/0 awg wire.

If this is going to be an SQ set up, then whats the need for such large wire? 1/0 will be plenty. or even 4 gage. It realy depends on the amperage on the line.
