Main power switch ?? - NOT remote wire
I'm stupid, I had posted a link to the correct type of breaker, but that one is 200 Amps, mine is actualy smaller, maybe 120 Amps. Depending on the size of wire you have you could be in trouble if there is a short as 4awg wire will get very warm if not melt before a 200 Amp breaker trips.
What size of power wire are you using?
edit: you are using 4awg wire, hmmmm I hope somebody else chimes in and says this isn't a serious problem just something to be aware of

no worries....i looked up info bout amps wires and fuses...i need 90amp(3X30amp fuses in the amp) therefore 120amp fuse/breaker(80amp might be safer but it also can kick out too often)...but this breaker is going to be used as switch only ...its gonna be too far from the battery to be a correct protection anyway, as im installing it inside the car near drivers seat....i bought a 200amp cuz maybe in future im gonna buy a bigger system, if so i have a fuse problem solved....:] thanks for carrying tho
