[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8888282, member: 689267"] Powerline fuses are to prevent fires, that 300A should work fine - 18" or less from the battery (not shown). Personally, for the main power/ground leads. I like using quality breakers instead (drawing has fuses shown but I use the T-Tocas, breakers there). You can turn them on or off with a flick of the switch, no fuses needed. Don't skimp here fors are expensive! THose others that are $15 to $25 are junk.
