Posted May 9, 201015 yr alright i found some battery terminals from KnuKonceptz and they hold 1/0 gauge wire. im planning on using them for the big 3 and for my amp install, my question is will they hold a 0 gauge wire? or will i have to just not get a positive terminal? here is the link to the battery terminal Edited May 9, 201015 yr by WhatsCS
May 10, 201015 yr It says right in the description that it holds up to 3, 1/0 gauge wires. Where's the confusion?
May 10, 201015 yr Author It says right in the description that it holds up to 3, 1/0 gauge wires. Where's the confusion?im just confused with the whole wire gauge system. so it will hold a 0 gauge wire? i though 0 was different from 1/0... thats what im confused about >.<
May 10, 201015 yr Do not buy those! u will literally want to kill somebody... they are the worst terminals i've ever used in my life.. I could smack the guy who made them and thought they were good, i'm not lying.Piece of crap...I'd rather own some boss audio subs than to have had those.
May 10, 201015 yr ya simple confusion! i have done it to! it doesn't help ppl call it different names either lol 1/0 0/1 0 0awg lol and so on! lol http://www.knukonceptz.com/assets/pdf/KBT30.pdf
May 10, 201015 yr Author then what should i buy?!?!? the Rockford Fosgate ones? i want so good battery teminals so i dont have to crimp a shit tone of wire (i dont know how and im lazy )
May 10, 201015 yr i say buy the 12 dollar ones. i never had a problem with them. plus if you wanna have three runs of 0 gauge on each one just use ring terminals to attach them.
May 10, 201015 yr Listen to Shizzzon, they are pure shit!Go to autozone and buy these. No need to get all fancy.
May 10, 201015 yr Author alright, well im planning on doing the big 3 with 1/0 wire. and then just one amp with 0 gauge wire. so im guessing 2 terminals for the negative and 2 for the positive. does that sound right?

I Bought These For My Setup, Yet To Be Installed ThoThey Seemed GoodWhats Bad About Them?
May 10, 201015 yr 1 amp1 big 3 addition wire1 factory wiring (8awg probably)u can get these-Tsunami TSBT-PN (tsbtpn) - Battery Terminals - Sonic Electronixbut going with terminals that require terminals on the wire would be cheaper.

I Bought These For My Setup, Yet To Be Installed ThoThey Seemed GoodWhats Bad About Them? for one, the connections are shit. they are a bitch to tighten but then onto performance-they have a VERY HIGH resistance problem. When i was using a HO alt, they would get REAL hot which means resistance issues inside the terminals.

May 10, 201015 yr Listen to Shizzzon, they are pure shit!Go to autozone and buy these. No need to get all fancy. thats what i use... works super great

May 10, 201015 yr The compression fittings suck ass IMHO.i found that out with their distribution block. waste of $23.99
May 10, 201015 yr Author The compression fittings suck ass IMHO.i found that out with their distribution block. waste of $23.99wait is this the tsunami or the knu?
May 10, 201015 yr Author The compression fittings suck ass IMHO.Agreed.which one?!?!?! gah im so confused? the knu? the second one or the tsunami?!?!?!?!?
May 10, 201015 yr Author when it comes to Knukonceptz, get their wire and that's it, no hard parts.mmkhow do i know what fuses to get for the amp kit and the inline fuse for the alt to bat? Edited May 10, 201015 yr by WhatsCS
May 10, 201015 yr Author alt to bat fuse- fuse the wire so a 1/0 cable needs at least a 250a fuse.and the bat to amp? for 1000 watts and 1500 watts or will it be the same fuse? Edited May 10, 201015 yr by WhatsCS
