Wiring up batteries

Recommended Posts

Struggling to get my head round this.

I've got 1 battery up front. Then I've got/will have 6-8hawkers in the footwells. Most likely to be 2 behind drivers seat, 2 behind passenger seat and 2 in the front footwell.

I'll only be using the hawkers when showing off or at shows.

I've got two sundown saz-3500s & ATM 1 phd 2200.

Cable wise I've got 25-30m of 50mm2 & a 5m run of 150mm2.

What is going to be the best way of wiring this up?

Also how would you fuse it? That's going to be a lot of fuses if I put one inbetween each battery.

Anyone used these.

Hook up all batteriess in parallel and then only fuse to amp(s).

Never used or seen those type of battery terminals before.

You want to fuse after the stock battery and fuse before the battery bank, run all batteries in parallel and then fuse after the battery bank.
