Fusing For AQ2200

[Nut Hair Trick 10+ year member]

I'm about to buy this amp to run in my setup. Up until now I've been using a KnuKonceptz distro block that has (2) 1/0 ins and (3) outputs for 1/0, 4, or 8. The block of course takes 3 mini ANL fuses which from what I understand, only go up to 150. External fusing for the AQ2200 is 200 amps so how should I do this? Buy an inline 200 amp fuse? If so, would I be able to run it off one of the 1/0 inputs even though the input wasnt really designed to be an output? I have a XS power D3400 up front and that's the only battery I have. Should I make another run of 1/0 to run to this amp? Suggestions are very much appreciated.

I guess I'll contact AQ and see what they think.

Yeah, If I had a battery in the rear, that's just what I'd do. I might have to just make another run of 1/0 from the front. I was trying to avoid that by running 1/0 from one of the inputs off the distro block in the back, then fuse with a 250 at the amp. But, I didnt know if that was possible.

Sure it's possible, won't hurt a thing as long as everything is fused like it supposed to be.

Thanks for the reply, yes I plan to run an inline fuse from the block to the amp. I just didnt know if the block was directional. The 2 inputs are fused together so I will do just that. Thanks for the help.
