[QUOTE="LHSroller, post: 43302, member: 541409"] Hey, before I start...I want to say one thing...in-line circuit breakers are WAY better than inline fuse holders! Ok, so I install my new Visonik 1800 watt digital amp...I figure it doesnt put out that much so I install a 100 amp inline circuit breaker. Now, my fuses blow on the amp, ONCE, so I said "big deal" and I put new fuses in. But everytime I put new fuses in and turn on my HU and give power to the amp...all 4 fuses FRY! The circuit breaker doesnt trip, so how does 120 amps worth of fuses blow and not the 100 amp breaker? any ideas what could be going on...I checked my ground, its solid. I also checked that my speaker wires arent crossed, and all the connections on my subs are tight! System= Pioneer 1.5DIN HU Stock Amplified Infinity System Visonik 1800 Class X Digital Amp Visonik 10" Triple Bandpass any clues? cuz poppin fuses in just to blow is no fun, good thing for a discount at the local hardware store...oh well, they will get more fuses in next week!
