^^ I'm running 3 zapco's direct from a kinetik battery terminal posts and I'm not fused.
My 3 battery's are definitely fused from each other. They aren't in an array so I have no choice but to fuse them 3 times at 300a each.

Yuli it's sounds like he's fusing the wire. Fusing the wire to protect the battery from each other is correct.

You disagree yet do not seem to fill in any sort of solution or opinion on why? just something to think about lol.

as for me id probably just use a 300A fuse both ways as well lol simply because i like to keep things simple like. However as long as the fuse is the proper rating for what its protecting it shouldn't matter if its different from the battery to battery fuse, i dont think :s.

Always remember that if a wire is connected to a + battery terminal, it needs to have a fuse. The wire that connects the two batteries needs to have a fuse at each end and then fusing from the rear battery to your amplifiers. These fuses primarily protect the wire.
