I know I am supposed to use the remote turn on wire to power my fan (I think?) but I don’t want to do that because my head unit is precious to me and I don’t want anything interfering with its main job --> pumpin out beats. But I was wondering if I could use TWO battery terminal hook ups? One would be for my amp and the other for the fan. Go to this link to view a picture of what I am talking about. http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...0_12_thumb.jpg . I know it wouldn’t turn off automatically when the car is turned off but I would install a switch in the power line.

Basically all I am wondering is if it is possible to use 2 (TWO!!!) battery terminal connector-things on a battery and one wire leading from each connecter-thingy to run my fan and my amp. (I don’t want to use a large wire on one battery terminal then use a distribution block because that takes to much effort.)

Why not use a relay off of the remote wire to run the fans?

I did [ use a relay to run fan ] Minor diff is when I shut off HU so goes the power to fan . But if you really are concrned w/ heat build-up , you could shut down volumn first then turn off HU or get a delayed shut-off relay .
