Drawing of my old setup:













All these pics are of my old setup(s). Currently, I'm running an Orbital starting battery in the front, and an Orbital marine battery (12v) in the rear.

All my cables are 2ga. When I had the 6 volt'ers, I has a 1/0 connecting the two.

ALL connectors are standard copper lugs, crimped, soldered, and shrink wrapped. Being a daily driver and not just an SPL machine (135db StreetMax 1/2, and 165db Outlaw), everything is fused.

I'm of the "chrome don't make it go" type. My install does not need to look pretty. I use standard lead battery terminals, and/or marine adapters with copper lugged cables attached.

Works for me!

Great stuff - keep it comming
question = bus bars VS straight wire ??

I think they act the same way becasue they are close to each other , only problem with bars if u touch the wrong one its a hazzard - please give me your thought on that

Pretty much.

I used both actually. The pic I posted was from before I had added wire as well.
