optima yellow top is the most common choice, and is around £180. AndyPSWwide is using excide batteries in his, which his installer reckons are better. I know nothing about them though, so it might be worth U2Uing him. :thumbs: | |

2x 4 g cables one to the 1000.1 , the other to a spliter block, then the other 2x amps run a 8g cable to each. the 1000.1 will chew through power like no 2mora and needs a much greater supply. | |

IMO the Fosgate 1000.1 would need a 4g supply on its own........ | |

whats the point in running loads of power cables? :boggle: just run a single 4gauge cable, then get a dizzy block (20 quid) and tap of 4-8gauge for the amps :thumbs: | |

Personally i would wire 4gauge from the battery, then use a dizzy to split it off from there :) Although might be worth thinking about split charging mate :thumbs: | |

and im not sure if the output on the headunit for the remote will be strong enough to trigger 3 amps, so if it isnt you could wire it up to a relay. :thumbs: | |

what i've done it ran two power cables from the battery. one power cable for the biggest amp and the other 2 amps sharing the other power cable. | |
