I love these inline battery fuses

Been using for a few months without any problems and feel comfortable having protection between three 100 amph batteries.

Working well on solar system

This is a great product. Many complain about the price. But it’s a critical safety measure for life and property safety so is $80 for a fuse and holder worth getting versus some cheap Chinese thing that if the absolute worst happens (internal battery failure/ thermal runaway conditions) you want to bet your life and/or home on? Yes we have other safety devices, BMSs etc…but if you don’t plan for the worst (highly unlikely) scenario then you’re a gambler. IMHORemember the AIC rating is super important in fuses. That’s what going to prevent an arc from forming and allowing massive current to flow not to mention it can act as an ignition source for the hydrogen gas LifePo4 batteries vent. No arc less chance of fire. With these terminal fuses keep in mind the AIC drops as your pack voltage goes up from 12v to 24/48v. I build both. The picture is of a 16s 48v LFP pack. The terminal fuse is 3rd or 4th in line of safety measures right from the start. It doesn’t have the AIC @48v to handle a serious failure, hence it’s just a part of the safety system.#1 a must - class T fuse with an AIC rating of at least 20k connected directly to the battery main positive. If you can find a 50K AIC even better.#2 BMS - great when they work but even the highest quality ones can fail you. Not something to depend on solely.#3 DC breaker - this is a cheap junk Chinese breaker that I have zero trust in. For me it’s merely a cutoff switch to the terminals. It came as part of the metal enclosure kit. I can’t find a quality breaker that fits in there unfortunately.#4 These terminal fuses.Fan to vent gas from the case with a VOC sensor I built to alert me if hydrogen gas is being vented. Also added temperature sensors on various parts of the metal case to alert me (also connected to a microcontroller I built). I changed the default settings on the BMS for short circuit amps to a much much lower numbers same with temperature settings. Since my packs pull very minuscule amount of power I’ll never come close to the 100a the bms/pack is rated for. From there it’s again a series of disconnect switches, class T fuses to the inverter. For my “worst case scenario nothing stopped an internal failure” I have CellBlockEX pellets to pour on top of the box. I also have a Lifepo4 designed fire extinguisher (yes they are different due to the LFP chemistry and the ability of LFP batteries to self ignite since they produce all the elements needed for fire on their own. I also have canisters of Stat-X First Responder Aerosol Fire Suppression to toss at a fire and run away. Is this all overkill many would say yes. I would ask that same question to them if they skimped out on parts and lost property or god forbid life. I bet I would get a different answer then. Be safe folks. While super rare, you better have measures in place to deal with the super rare possibilities. Or like I said maybe you’re a gambler. Up to you what you need to feel safe and sleep at night. Class T fuses need to be in place sometimes a lot depends on your setup. Blue sea systems gets an A+ from me. I know you are paying more for the name but I’m ok with it. YMMV! Happy DIYing! Free energy from the sun!!

I searched for an easy to use Fuse for my Solar Electric house battery bank. Available in needed size, quality construction and easy to install with good instructions provided for proper tightening torque.

Good fuse easy to install once you figure it out. Do not put washers first on terminal

I use this fuse for an offroad truck wiring of some capacity to provide some electrical fault protection. So far works well and no issues. It fits a unique designed "mount/bracket"...

I like the peace of mind knowing that my battery banks are fused right at the battery.Agree, these fuses and their holders are not inexpensive. However, neither is your RV, boat, or other application for which you are likely to consider these. They also potentially eliminate the need to fabricate or purchase a short cable, terminal block, different kind of fish and fish block, and/or a circuit breaker.Top notch, and recommended.

Well, these are pricey. I bought one as a spare for my alternator-to-battery fuse system.

blue sea is the best !

Good but overpriced for a fuse.

You can't really know how good a fuse is until you get a short. Blue Sea has a stellar reputation. I was able to have email contact with a rep. Found out that this fuse is slow blow. I don't have the parameters in hand but there is a graph on the Blue Sea site that show the peak amps and the time sustained. The AIC is 10,000/12V. Check your battery SCCR. You might not need a Class-T.

Product was easy to install. Ran 100 amps in test run for 15 min. No heat generated. Excellent results.
