Post battery pics
 

I'm installing a system in my 01 GSR and I'm trying to come up with different ideas of how to add a 4ga power wire to the battery without it looking hacked. Right now there are three wires going to the positive:ABS, main power and starter.
Please post pics of your install to give me ideas. :thumbup:

I dont have pics...but you can easily run a 4 gauge to the battery post without it looking jacked up. It hides well under that red rubber cap. Then with the rest of the wire, put it in wireloom if you wanna go stealth :o

You just gave me an idea Will. :hugglez:

I found a combination fuse holder/ampmeter/voltmeter that will work nicely!

Ok, after reading about this unit, it has one input and one output but has two fuses midi fuses in it. What is the point of two fuses. :thinking:

Maybe because you can reach a higher MAX rating by using two fuses? :thinking: I am not sure. Some amps use 3x 30a fuses instead of a single 90a.

Does anyone know? I am curious myself.

I asked an electrician at work and found this out. I'm kinda slapping myself because I knew this in the first place.

Two 30 amp fuses wired in series = 30 amps
Two 30 amp fuses wired in parallel = 60 amps

The fuses in the aforementioned holder work in parallel. So two 150 amp fuses = 300 amps and one 150 fuse = 150 amps.

Umm, how do you set up a fuse to be in series?

errr..... fuses in series would be kinda pointless. only the 1st or lowest rated fuse would blow.

He wasn't saying he was going to wire two fuses in series, he was just pointing out two fuses wired diffrently will work differently.

Thank you!

That was exactly what I was doing.

Will,

Two fuses in series would look like this:

Like was mentioned earlier, it doesn't make much sense to do this as the smallest one would go first. Kind of like the Christmas lights where if you pull one bulb out, they all go out.
