Do you mean inline fuses? Wafer style? Try some local install shops...

Trying to remember where I got mine...

EDIT: Now I remember, I got mine from sound domain, but they dont seem to carry mine anymore. They do have 200 amp stinger ones though.

I'm running a sundown at .5 ohm and from what I've been told I'll pull around 190amps. 190 is too close to 200 to buy a 200 IMO. Thats why I'm trying to get a 250.

since your close to canton, check out horizon audio, they might have a 250, but im going there tomorrow, so ill check for you

Thanks man. I should have called them. Didn't think of it. Century 2000 might have them but I hate them overpriced assh0les.

190A is going to be the draw at max power on sine waves. It will take a over 200A or a sustained continuous draw of 200A to trip a 200A breaker. In fact is you don't short internal fuses on the amp, you don't have to worry about it drawing any more than what it takes to blow 160A fuses.

If you want reliable circuit protection a fuse is the only way to roll.

So a 200 amp will be fine?
