Bmike Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 I did the breaker thing back in the mid 90's, and after several times flipping , it wouldn't flip when it was soposed to. I loss a few ppi amps,fuse it and save your equipment. 2007 trailblazer lthead unit- pioneer p4300dvd crescendo ft-1 supertweeters pioneer m650 pros audiocontrol 2xs crossover Rockford fosgate p200-2 highsrockford fosgate p400-2 mids1- fi btl 18amps- saz 3500battery- evermax in front, 2 9a31 dekas in rearwires all knuconceptz 1/0 and rcas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ric006 Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 ive dont it all, Never had a problem with a breaker, never had a problem with a cheap fuse. They all work just depends on your application if your using low amps like anywhere from 0 to 250 you can use a breaker anything higher fused, Some people said breakers caught fire but like i said i have never had a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
