[QUOTE="manofthehour123, post: 6884426, member: 623798"] I have a cadence TXA-1000D and blew a 60A fuse at about 70% power and an 80A fuse all the way turned up lol. Talked to a friend who knows a little in the field of electric stuff and he said the fuse I had was cheap... Got it from DB Link looked relatively well made, but obviously not... just thought I'd throw that out there. Bought a different fuse holder and fuse for the amp today and got a 40A, 60A, 80A, and 100A fuses with it. Obviously the 40A and 60A are no gos, but I put the 80A in to see how well it would do. Another important thing when looking at fuses is looking at how much amperage your wire can actually take. The 0/1 gauge I just ordered from Knu Koncepts to do the Big 3 and put in a second battery said no more than 250A so I bought 250A fuses and holders... Putting more amperage may cause the wire to catch fire... or something like that. Hope that helps clear some stuff up. And hopefully I got my facts straight lol. [/QUOTE]
