A system that draws 50 amps the moment it turns on, goes through 40 amp fuses like sharks do teeth. Well this shark needed a monster 1 farad cap, 4 gauge for power, 1150 cold cranking amp, SVR battery and a 190 amp alternator. Well the first two did the job and the alternator was impossible! Curious about fusing the amp? It requires a 100 amp circuit breaker, 80 didn't cut it.
