Anyone use something like this between your battery and main battery cable?
I'm sure 150 amps is not enough for a starter motor..... or is it? http://www.amazon.com/Bussmann-Hi-Amp-Circ...s/dp/B0024JOKM4 I also thought these were interesting too. http://compare.ebay.com/like/370336644693?...4=263602_309572 |

Another thing ... and I'm sure I will be corrected if wrong ... every crimp or joint adds resistance and a potential point of failure.
By installing this "feature" the "risk of failure" increases. Again, I just ain't seeing the need. If you want "bling" and "wow", then OK. But be honest about it. |
