Silver Member Username: DeadrabitPost Number: 425 Registered: Jun-07 | other than having a fuse its a breaker so u don't have to replace the fuse if you blow it. |

Silver Member Username: DeadrabitPost Number: 428 Registered: Jun-07 | so i am guessing there is not down side to it? u still get just as much power going to the amp right? |

Platinum Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 17038 Registered: Jun-06 | It means I'd like to not see you depend on a breaker. When your sh1t trips it's for a reason. If you don't correct the problem and just keep "hitting the button" it will eventually cause more problems, even maybe a fire. Think of it like a heart attack. If you could just reset a breaker on your heart every time you have a heart attack does that mean everything's ok now??!! Think long term man. When your system cries for help/fails it means something. Solve it now. It's more expensive later trust me. |

Silver Member Username: DeadrabitPost Number: 432 Registered: Jun-07 | ok i just offered money for it. hahahaha. its better than spending 14 bucks for a fuse if i drop a wire or something. thats the only time i have blown a fuse. when i droped it on a ground or something like that. if i set something up wrong i will fix it |

Silver Member Username: Snowball123West Allis, WI United States Post Number: 848 Registered: Oct-07 | yeah theres no way a fuse costs 14 bucks. |
|
Silver Member Username: DeadrabitPost Number: 440 Registered: Jun-07 | well at the car audio store it cost 14 bucks... WAY over priced. but when i did blow it that one time i didn't want to wait to order one. so i drove and spend the 14 bucks... |
