Re: Relocated Battery Wiring
You may have been thinking less voltage = more current with something like an electric motor. I once had an air compressor wired for 120 volts that would occasionally trip a breaker.
It was a dual voltage motor so I was able to rewire it for 220/240 volts. It then drew approximately half the current to do the same work, and never tripped a breaker again.
