    Is there ever a need for a thicker remote wire? I'm running 3 things off of it...and I'm planning running another 100 watt amp...and 2 neon lights.



    As soon as my 10's come in and i have them setup...I'll have my stereo, an eq, and a 200.2 running off the same remote wire.



    Should I add another remote wire or what? I don't know how or where to run it from if i have to add one. Should I run my neons at a constant 12v and put a switch on them. Or should I run them from the remote?

    Patrick, I dont think you'll find you need a heavier remote on lead. Remote leads only close a relay or a transistor inside the amplifier or eq or whatever processor you may be running. However, if you feel the need, you could always make your remote lead close a relay that would then send power down to the amps and stuff. A relay will allow battery power to power everything after it.
