1st post

Im installing a 1F cap and 2 amps and i want to be able to turn off each amp with a switch, question 1 can i just put a switch on the rem or do i put it on the power? ( I think the rem switch will work but im just a noob at this stuff) question 2 do i need a circut breaker on the cap to turn it off when im driving and the amp if off ???

No need to switch a cap.  Once they are charged they do not place any load on your system if the amps are off.  Install your amp-on switch in line with the REM lead, not the power.
