Not sure about #4 from the PM but try it and see. I use fatter than that #1 18" for the 100amper.
i meant to say i would change the 6ga to 2ga (not 4ga) from batts to shunt... i edited my post.
several charts, including the one trojan uses, say less than 5 feet of 4ga is plenty for 75a. i only went with 2ga from batts to inverter because i read somewhere not to "starve" the inverter into setting off its low voltage alarm too early.
before i split the bank, i think i might also try hooking the pm's neg directly to the batt... thus by-passing the shunt and that 6ga wire...i won't have an amps reading from the tri-metric, but i will know if the pm kicks into boost by the voltage.
