Battery Wiring Upgrade

Look into getting a capacitor. It should cure your dimming. I was into car stereos when I was younger.

I don't think my system is powerful enough to need that, jeeps wimpy stock wiring is the biggest problem here but a capacitor or a 2nd battery would be a consideration of the problem persisted.

They are used so you don't have to mess with other stuff.

I am planning on a 100 h4 headlight upgrade and potentially aux lights too. And a winch is possible down the road as well, so I would rather get the root of the problem out of the way instead of bandaid it when I will have to upgrade the wiring down the road anyways.

I've got all that along with a light bar yet never had to do anything to my wiring. I just upgrade to an optima battery.

Upgraded main power wires are a must. The stock heep wiring is barely good enough for stock use.
Capacitors are mostly a band-aid, like t-case drops. With proper power and wiring, not typically necessary.

Pretty much in a nutshell, 4 awg kits are $125 shipped, that's including the fuse holder and two 150 amp fuses, and positive/negative military style terminals.
The 2 awg kits are the same except in thickness and go for $160 shipped.

exaxtly what im looking for i will be in touch atriot:
