Amps Draw and Voltage Drop Question 2
Question 2 -17 Oct -------- There are no dumb questions--until now! If the furnace draws 8 amps and there is a 0.2v drop when it is on, and you change the positive wire to the furnace to a fatt...

But, another way to look at it is how many amps are drawn from the battery.
If smaller gauge wire, instead of the vast majority of the amps turning the motor some are turned into HEAT by the resistance in the wire.
So, the answer really depends on how you phrase the question.
Bottom line is you want to maximize the amps taken out of the battery that are turned into RPM by the motor, not wasted in the wire.
