    So I am currently in the process of wiring that badlands remote into a worn VR Evo 12. The difference being I cannot wire mine to the plug the way you did because it uses a microcontroller. So when I wire the receiver directly to the solenoid I keep poped my fuse. I was wondering if I am missing something, or if anyone could give me insight

    It always surprises me with how optimistic stuff like this is with wire size. Even if technically it can handle the amps people always forget about voltage drop. Good video, I bet that motor is happier with the larger wire. I've got some of those huge 4/0 anderson connectors on my big diy lithium pack for running the winch and inverter. I need to get one of these compressors soon and toy around with it. I tried the a/c compressor into air compressor mod but it was really difficult to filter out all the oil it kept puking up, even with multiple catch cans filled with steel wool and a recirculating drain back into the intake.

    if anyone uses the hose and fittings linked in the description i would recommend using the small dremel sandpaper bits to make the area you feed the hose through slightly larger. it is an extremely tight fit if you dont and, while possible to get through, will take a lot of time for each one (upwards of an hour). using the dremel from the bottom, up until the threads start will make feeding the hose through much easier and is still a very tight fit

    The vast vast majority of jumper cables are copper coated aluminum and I see a lot of people using jumper cables on these. CCA is equivalent to a copper cable 3 or 4 AWG smaller….so using a 4AWG CCA isn’t an improvement to an 8AWG copper cable. And yes I saw that you realized the jumper cable conductor wasn’t actually 4 gauge. Just thought I’d add that in. The cable on the unit has to be pure copper otherwise it would not handle 90 amps any day of the week

  • @IronsideAdventures801
    @IronsideAdventures8013 ай бұрын

    This is good information. Thanks for adding it to the discussion. From your information, it sounds like if using good pure copper leads, you could do 8 ga. That also means my 6 ga cables are over sized. I'm good with that too.

  • @ericklein5097
    @ericklein50973 ай бұрын

    M10 is a bolt size. Perhaps it said 10mm2 (squared not the number 2…a tiny 2 up in the corner) indicating conductor cross sectional area in millimetres squared. Essentially the metric version of AWG 10mm2 is 8AWG IIRC. 6 AWG would be better for a 90A compressor. At the very least use a cable with 90 or 105 degree Celsius insulation. Silicone has a 200 degree insulation and therefor would handle the amperage better but would need some kind of sheathing because it’s not very abrasion or cut resistant.

That would save running the two big cables up through all the confined spaces.
