Regarding the wire input and outputs: Up to what gauge of wire does it take?

the truth is the heavier that fits is the best, i do not have it in front of me but try 12-16 guage or less, the thickest that you can fit in

I used 12/2 gauge, but knowing the length of wire and total wattage if bulbs is key

You should be able to use just about any wire with the same gauge as the ones attached to the sensors, since the current going through is minimal and overheating is not an issue...

I use a lot of 16 thru 12 ga. wire depending on current draw. Connectors are available very heavy current to the lighter stuff, i.e., 22 ga. Do a search and see. de K0xxx

Not sure but it really doesn't make any difference,just use the same size wire as the rest of the gauges.

most systems at 12 volt use 10 amps or less of power. Therefore, 16 to 18 guage wire should work just fine.

Proper wire size is determined by the load (Amps) and length of wire needed. Search for "12v wire sizing chart" to see a breakdown. I use 16 gauge wire which will carry up to 5 Amps 15 feet with about 3% voltage drop.

i just used 14 gauge electric wiring. it worked fine. the connections could take 12 gauge wire.

I used 16 gage and my system sounds fine. The thicker the wire is, the better. But I think 16 gage is fine for most applications.

Someone is 'guessing'? I wouldn't call that an answer. And 20, maybe 30 amps out of '18 gauge' wire? DON'T EVEN TRY IT!

Yes... ready for standard speaker wire... whatever gauge you want to use. Really nice for the size.

If you download the manual off of the pioneer website, page 11 will tell you the gauges for all the cabling required. The power wiring gauge is according to max possible length and a recommendation for gauge. I just used 4 gauge for my setup. The speaker wire ranges from 8-16 gauge. I used 16 gauge as part of the wiring kit I bought.

0 Gauge wire should be used!That is what is ran to my Brutus.At the very least a deep cycle battery (fast discharge) should be used!My total system wattage is 5400& I use 0 to each amplifer!The more voltage the better!!!Don't Skimp Out!

I Binged the question and found the answer, I would use the 16 gauge wire, especially if you putting the time into making them. I hope that this answers your question.

I've used them with 16 and 18 gauge wire. They work well with both, but I ended up using 16 gauge for my setup.

need to get wire (16 ga -18 ga), + 2 spade female connecters, and connecters to power source (fused)

You mean watts? This wire should be fine for a few hundred watts. If you were going closer to 500w you would want 10 gauge maybe 8
