I figured out a way to test what the ACTUAL performance difference is between 12 gauge and 14 gauge battery wire. And I'm going to figure out if there is even a point in you using thicker wire on your builds. 12 gauge vs 14 gauge? Does it even matter?

HINT: i think the answer is, no. There isn't. BUT SCIENCE WILL FIND OUT THE TRUTH
