HunterJohnson Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 i poped an 80 amp fuse on a hifonics brz 1200. If you cant pop a 50 on a skar 1500 youre doing it wrong Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranny Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 you're barely using the amps potential. use the correct sized fuse that is indicated in the manual. and i hope to god you have true 0 gauge on that amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicks Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 The better question is why you're using such a small fuse for that amp...? MUCH better too small then too big but still. Kranny makes a good point. While we're at it, what size power wire are you using?

Wicks Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Another good question, what load are you running on the amp (verified with a DMM)?

Wicks Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I let some one wire my stuff it has 4 gauge power to a block then 8 gauge to scar and 8 gauge to highs amp Don't change your fuse with that wiring. A 50A fuse is good for 8ga but that amp needs more fuse and wire. I'd suggest you have somebody change them all out.
