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 fatter wire, will the furnace draw fewer amps, or will it still draw 8 amps but have less voltage drop at the battery bank?
