[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8856838, member: 674149"] What is this powering? The vehicle or an amp? I would never use that, and certainly not long term. That's a very small set screw to secure your power wire. If you noticed burning on the ends, then it came loose and has a loose connection causing resistance. That is incredibly dangerous. If that actually comes out of that, then you have a wire connected to your batter pos, and then that other wire catches metal, you will arc and burn your vehicle to the ground. If this was for an amp, I would get rid of those, trim both ends clean, and replace it with a fuse holder. You should have enough to be able to reuse those wires. A fuse holder would at least have a large enough set screw to secure the connection. [/QUOTE]
