You should use 2 red and 2 black cables, Install the inverter as close to the batteries as possible and use minimum #4ga cables #2 are better. Keep the cables as short as possible. You will need also connectors, like the ones on the truck's battery cables, attach these to both ends of each cable and crimp VERY well, connect all 4 cables to the inverter first, then the red cables at the positive battery terminals (if 4 batteries use one on each end) then the black cables to the negative posts the same way.

Yes it is better if you hook up both reds and blacks to the truck battery. It will run with only one red and black but better with both. It is also best if you will hook up one red and black to one battery then hook the other red and black to a second battery. That way you are not pulling all of your power from one battery.

Aims 2000 watt power inverter will not turn on. i have it hooked in series to two 12 volt batteries and when i flip the on switch nothing happens

try parallel .
negative battery one to negative battery two
positive battery one to positive battery two
all positives to inverter positive
all negatives to inverter negative

Why ?
if batteries are in series you are adding voltages so inverter gets 24 volts when it is rated at 12 v to 16v but two batteries in parallel increases the current available and capacity but keeps voltage at 12 v

I have a 1000 Watt Inverter, along with a regular car battery when the electricity goes out; Question: Can I use the 1000 Watt inverter and connect a 100 amp, deep cycle battery? I use regular house...

Yes, just be sure connections are heavy enough wire, and obviously the inverter uses 12 vdc input. Hook jumper wires positive to positive, negative to negative, on all 12 volt batteries. Deep cycle batteries will work better than car batteries. Just remember, when re-charging them, that they last longer when charged slowly, so don't use a high amp setting on charger and to monitor them closely, and do it in a well ventilated area, away from any ignition sources.
