Extra battery question *hc600*

Ok guys i am gonna hook up my Kinetik HC600 on saturday but I have a question.

1. Do i need to buy/use a Circuit break with a second battery?

Circuit breaker like this:

The kinetik battery website doesnt talk about using circuit breakers. But a local audio shop called Eastern Audio says i will need them. I want to trust them because they have like a few world records. They have like the worlds loudest car with one 10" sub or something like that.

BTW: I already have 4 gauge wire to run it and the huge fuses that are by the battery. I am also gonna do the BIG3 soon to my truck soon too.

Thanks alot guys!

I dont know if this helps but all the wire is Fosgate and the fuse holder is fosgate too

And i have a fuse on the positive and negative wires

No, you don't need a fuse... Just hook them up in parallel. You need to take some 4 gauge wire and run it from your alternator to your main battery under the hood and fuse it 30 amps or so above whatever your alt is, tho. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif And do the big 3 while you're at it.
