tacomabanga1986 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 i wanna see someone blow a 200+ amp fuse on purpose just to see if it will acually blow, cause when my buddy was takeing shit out of one of my friends cars they was a 4 or 0guage wire just layin down in the trunk tub with no tape or anything on the end with bare wire sticking out n it still hooked up, n when he went to look under the hood the 150amp fuse was glowing red but didn't blow so this brings me to the point of, i wanna see if these huge ass fuses will acually blow if they had to, can someone wit shit ton of batteries hook up a lil circuit of 0guage or somethin n ground it out n see if u can get a fuse to blow, cause the 300amp fuses are as thick as some welding rod n i just wanna see how acuratly raited like will a 250amp fuse blow at 251 amps? i mean im not doubting them to blow but i want to make sure they will acually blow if somethin bad happined cause all of these ppl sayin fuse this n fuse that but this makes me think, ok i have 2 batteries and a run of 0guage from front to back and a knu 250amp fuse up front but nothing in the back and this is why, ok if i added another 250amp fuse back there wont this make my main line fused @500amps? this makes me think cause i took electrical in highschool n i kno theres a big diff on how the amps work from a residential home vs in a car audio setup but i want to get this str8 that cant u have to much fusing and without the right amount of amps flowing threw the wire to blow it from a short wont it ketch fire befor blowing a fuse? this aint a rant but i want to kno without a shadow of a doubt that a higher amp fuse will blow when it needs to, cause without enough backfeed in amps cause it to keep arking instead of blowing? i would try this but i dont have enough power in amps to acually blow a fuse witch leads to the post i just made^ this post was tward him asking how to fuse his back battery so it is on topic Quote here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toone Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Fusing for the amp makes no sense, you fuse for your wire. if your wire can carry only 200 amps you dont get a 300 amp fuse your wire would burn up if your amp is pulling that much wattage. what kind of wire do you plan on running and what size thats whats needed to tell you what size fuse you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toone Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 ok i have 2 batteries and a run of 0guage from front to back and a knu 250amp fuse up front but nothing in the back and this is why, ok if i added another 250amp fuse back there wont this make my main line fused @500amps? this makes me think cause i took electrical in highschool n i kno theres a big diff on how the amps work from a residential home vs in a car audio setup but i want to get this str8 that cant u have to much fusing and without the right amount of amps flowing threw the wire to blow it from a short wont it ketch fire befor blowing a fuse?this aint a rant but i want to kno without a shadow of a doubt that a higher amp fuse will blow when it needs to, cause without enough backfeed in amps cause it to keep arking instead of blowing? i would try this but i dont have enough power in amps to acually blow a fuse witch leads to the post i just made^ this post was tward him asking how to fuse his back battery so it is on topic the fuses only allow 250 amps to flow through them so no its not 500 its 250. you must not have paid too much attention lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
