@Husky_Shane_Basshead Yes. It's because of the danger of the flow of DC current. If you break the ground, as in this example, and a problem occurs like a short circuit, the path to ground is gone. The new path to ground could be your body, or something else, possibly causing a car fire. The ground wire is your path to safety. That is why it's best to always break the hot wire for a switch and not the ground wire.
that is a super-capaciter bank that I built. That battery is now in the car under the hood. I have a build and install video of that if you're interested
Nice clean look 👌
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. Yeah I’m very happy with how it turned out. It looks like it belongs there
Hi there, always put the switch on the hot side. The positive side. It's safer to do it that way.
Can you explain why? I really don’t know so am curious.

What type of wire do you use
I usually try to just find some 14 - 18 gauge wire. I can order it online, or find it at a local auto parts store
What kinda battery did you test the gauge on?

@Husky_Shane_Basshead yea I'm definitely gonna check it out! I have a XS in my car but that battery looked sweet.. Thanks
@@itsMrBRoc they are super capacitor cells I got from DroppinHurtz, and it’s just a cheap empty batter case that I got from batteryhookup.
@Husky_Shane_Basshead yea I'm watching now.. really cool man thanks!
