these kind work..but the plastic is really poor quality...they strip easy and crack up...and sometimes break

AGU fuses are limited upon rating,and not as reliable as an ANL from my experience over the years being used as main supply..But it will work for you.I dont mind using an AGU inline for amp supply from a solid distro block,but nicer to use Maxi or anl

what fuse do I need? 100, 150, 200, 250, or 300 amps?

As Louisina CRX ststed..plastic threads and strip easily over time and get brittle over time due to heat from the engine bay onthe one you posted..work fine inside the vehicle,but not a good concept for the engine bay area

If I upgrade to 4 ga should I opt for the 300?

you have to watch wire these days also...get pure copper...not copper plated aluminum...and a lot of companies skimp on size...ive seem 4g so small it barely fit a 10g terminal
