Fuses? Yes or no?

[mazzasec 5,000+ posts]

Well I am about to go with a pretty big setup. Its gonna be used for daily/competitions. How many out there that are running high powered setups use fuses? I know alot dont so that they dont lose voltage. I am doing 2 runs of power from the front to rear. Also my amp has 2 power/grnd inputs. If I fuse ALL power wires in there appropriate place I am gonna be looking at like 6 fuses/fuse holders. Who knows how much thats gonna affect my voltage! Any opinions?

You blow a fuse, you lose.

no fuse = fire //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

for the .001 volt (approx) you loose it's worth it IMO

If you've got a fire, then you've already got bigger issues.

a fuse can prevent forest fires

Yeah. Do they make bigger fuses then a 300a fuse? I know my amp is gonna pull more then 300 amps.

I could see if this was a competition vehicle only but if you're using this as a daily driver as well I would HIGHLY recommend fusing. But who knows what goes through the minds of you SPL guys anyway.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
