100-Amp MIDI Fuse Kit for Redarc Smart Start Battery Isolator

Video Transcript for Redarc 60-Amp MIDI Fuse Kit Review

Today, we're going to be taking a look at Redarc's midi fuse kit. These are available in forty, sixty or one hundred amps. Many of our customers compare these to standard automotive fuses or circuit breakers and the main reason you would want to opt for this fuse over a standard automotive fuse is that the fuse attachment points are screwed down. This ensures that there will be a good connection between our fuse and our circuits for those high amp drawing components.Circuit breakers can typically build heat under long periods of exposure to high amperage draw, which could cause extra resistance and potentially cause that circuit breaker to pop, requiring you to disconnect it to reset it. Whereas these, don't build as much heat and are going to be more suited for those high amp applications these are going to be heavy duty fuses that will give you overload protection for whatever circuits you install them on. What this means, is if you have a short or fault on a circuit on the other side of the fuse, rather than it causing damage to the wiring and circuits on your vehicle, it simply opens the fuse, allows you to make the repairs that you need to fix that wiring and then simply replace it with a new fuse.The kits come with two fuse holders, four fuses and four ring terminals to make connections for your wiring to connect to your fuses on each side.

To mount it, you will need to provide your own screws, they don't come included with the kit. We just use some self tapping screws here, to get this one mounted. Depending on where you mount it, you may want to use a different type of attachment point.Typical applications use this form for high current drawing components, such as numerous lights inside of a camper or RV. We're using ours with our BCDC charging system on our camper here. And, that completes our look at Redarc's midi fuse kit..
