what gauge wire is recommended for this install?

You can regular wire or we do have wiring harness for sale which is $15 thanks.

Assuming the batteries and your electrical system requires no other changes the than the installation of the battery monitor then all you will need is the 22 gauge wires (8) for the length you need. These are cheap at a hardware store and there should be no need for the wiring kit.

I only use 12 gauge, in the event that you may want to add lights in the future and don't want to worry how far away the transformer tou're better off with the thicker guage

Are you talking about your power wires? If so I would definitely use 4 gauge for my ground with any amplifier you can use 6 or 8 gauge for the power cable

I actually used 16 gauge wire. I think 14 would work; it would depend on whether 14 will fit in the speaker wire recepticles. No problem at all with the 16 gauge.

Go solid - much easier to work with in tight places. The gauge needed depends on current flow requirements, but 22-24ga is common.

I would get a 4 gauge wireing kit, brand doesn't really matter as long as it's good quality and is a true 4 guage kit. It would probably cost around 30-40$

I think the wire I used is 18 gauge, but I'm confident that up to 16 gauge would slide in easily as well.

Sure. I believe this is 16 gage wire but you could use a red or blue crimp connector, or better yet, solder and heat shrink.

18 gauge. It's not really the thickness of the wire but it is the outside coating that makes this the wire to use. Any thicker wire and it is harder to install...just a thought

I honestly don't know, I used this kit for a low end system. (120 watts powered sub/amp combo) The way I see it... the higher the wattage, the lower the gauge. 4 gauge would be better.

I used 16 gauge with the terminals that are provided. If you want to go to a heavier wire, you can provide your own terminals which are readily available.

I use a relatively low gauge but am out of town so can't say accurately. Mine is NOT the heavy "round" wire.

I used 10 Gauge, distance to the battery and controller charging output (Amps) has a bearing on the wire gauge size. Go larger rather then smaller, it make the system more efficient and saver.

I used 8 gauge and bought a kit from Amazon that contained all the wires and fuse block needed for the install.

14 gauge is really better. I used 14 gauge and it works great. The longer wire runs should use bigger wire like 14.

I would use no smaller than 16 gauge wire. You could go a low a 12 but this wire is thick and harder to hide. The thoughts have always been the smaller the gauge(thicker) the better .
