Great quality/support and compact installation

Great Blue Sea quality and very easy to mount directly to the battery post. It got hot at first and a quick email response from Blue Sea prompted me to double check where the washing machine was. It was located under the terminal, which caused the electricity to flow through the washing machine. Since the washer is less conductive, there have been many losses. After I put all the washers over the cable clamp everything worked great.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Good but not great

The fuse is NOT ON! Avoid.

I advise against this product. If you look at the product page, you will see that a fuse is already pre-installed. However, you will NOT receive a BACKUP! The price should include the fuse. The manufacturer of this product should seriously consider clarifying this fact! Now I have to wait for fuse to arrive lol what an absolute waste of time. I will avoid this brand in the future - you don't have to be a rocket scientist to write a clear product description.

Pros
  • complete set
Cons
  • empty

Compact and perfect for battery pack

I connected two Vmax 125ah batteries in parallel. I connected this very compact and simple fuse to protect the inverter. I have a 600W pure sine wave inverter with 1000W peak, so 100A is perfect for this setup. I use #6 wires less than 3 feet long to minimize any resistance. While you can use a cheaper setup with a DB Link AGUFH1 AGU fuse holder, the wires aren't as flexible and the fuse gets in the way of the inverter's terminals a bit. It can be done but I like this setup better for the…
