Anyone know where in LA I can get something that'll hold a 120-150amp fuse to a 4 gauge wire?
I need this tomarrow when the rain stops and I finish my battery kill/relocation...
Thanks ^_^

your nearest car audio shop will have it i actually used a 140 amp stinger circut breaker for my conversion if you go fuse use an ANL style fuse holder IMHO they are the best high amp fuses for automotive apps plus ANL fuses come in everything from 100-300 amp in 20 to 50 amp increments

A circuit breaker sounds like a cheaper-in-the-long-run alternative... I think i'll just do that! thanks.

no no no...
please not a circuit breaker, they can fail "closed" and catch your car on fire.
If you are interested I used to be into car audio and I have a massive fuse holder at home, gold plated stinger.. might be missing a set screw or something.
Anyway it will handle anything up to 200 amps, whatever you can find fuses for. I probably wont' be home for a couple weeks but if you want it its yours for the price of shipping, maybe 5-10 bucks..
I think new like 4 years ago it was 60 or something, stinger shit is expensive, and I'm never gonna use it again.

I dunno I used to install car audio equipment and if you go into competition and read the rule books, they strongly discourage the use of circuit breakers for that reason.
