Review on πŸ”Œ UTSAUTO 30Amp Resettable Fuse Circuit Breaker for Car Stereo and Inverter with Inline Fuse Holders by Jeremy Jackz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Breakers don't fry a Volkswagen, but a fuse can fume out a Jetta turbo in under a quarter mile

to the fuses on the dash panel but given the bus and back to the breakers I don't The fuses go not through very often, but when they're all the same it's always at night, with no lights, and seems to have scared off any replacement that should be. In order not to blow fuses frequently, burning is probably more appropriate. I had blown a mate's car because the fuse box wasn't set properly for the full 2 minutes after the car started. He almost made it to the main road before the entire driver's side of the car burst into flames. He had to open the door and jump over the flames that came out from under the carpet where the inscription lay. The trunk contained a secondary battery with its power and ground leads connected to the main battery to eliminate system noise. Everything was initially fused to keep those lines safe, but some sound expert eventually told him he didn't need to be fused like that. He removed all the fuses and only reinstalled one fuse block, not isolating anything on the bottom of the block and dangling it from the main block. The nets as they were were too close to the turbo and melted to bare copper. After the guy improved the accidental shutdown system and also improved the solution to the noise issue by boosting it back up, my buddy came over to check it out again. I immediately noticed the wires melting and as a quick fix I painted them with liquid tape and sealed them with duct tape. The mesh had melted so much that I didn't notice the dangling and exposed block. By pinning and moving the main line, the block had to find the right spot to enter the short position. It wasn't long before a short caused the 0-gauge power lines and ground lines that ran between the primary battery under the hood and the secondary battery in the trunk to burn down the length of each. If you've never had an electrical fire, here's a tip: water won't put it out, and neither will a fire extinguisher as long as the power source is still feeding it. Another 5 minutes passed before someone came and told me that the car was on fire and that I couldn't get there, whereupon he and the good samaritan turned to me from the smoking car, saying they had just put out the fire. The escaping black smoke seemed to suggest otherwise, and at that moment flames erupted from the open driver's door beneath his dash, into which he then poured half an ounce. Bottle of water to no avail. Luckily he popped the hood up when he saw smoke coming out and the trunk electronics shorted it out so we could pry out both batteries. The battery posts melted and the connections to them appeared to be welded, the batteries caught fire but still gave juice and fueled the fire until they were yanked from the car. It burned heavily and quickly burned out all the car's electrical system. So I switched to Brecher and never tried the German Farfegnugen again. Breakers lead by 2 points.
