[QUOTE="WHITE TRASH1, post: 1116305, member: 15951"] I understand about the positive lead overheating and melting out of the battery under overuse but I still connect light amp draw stuff to it. I only have 2 wires coming off the + currently.. :D Binder is correct of course. double 00 is large welding lead. I don't waste my time with "automotive" cable anymore. The higher the wire content the better conductivity. Electricity passes on the outside of the strands not the inside, so the more strands the higher the current it can withstand. If you go that route use crimp&solder ends for best connection. Just be sure to fuse everything and put a main switch inline with the main power so in the catastrophic event of a dead short you can kill the power beings your not running fisher price wire that will melt and disconnect itself anymore. :haha: :; [/QUOTE]
