Hi, I am reading Bob’s book and am no longer sure about what a quality battery ground looks like. Do I just install a short jumper between the battery negative and the airframe? Or do I need to run a long wire from the battery negative up to the firewall/instrument panel ground bus?

Check out the Obrien battery installation photos

A robust electrical connection to airframe is
sufficient. Also, note the welding cable
jumpers off the battery terminals . . . even
if you choose 22759 FAT wires for everything
else, welding cable battery leads make life
much more pleasant for removal/replacement
of batteries.

Un impeachable logic: George Carlin asked, "If black boxes
survive crashes, why don't they make the whole airplane
out of that stuff?"
