If you have a OEM battery then you will need to buy a sealed box. OEM battery\u2019s are vented battery\u2019s, they will expel gasses from the battery during loads\/being charged. If they are not sealed, the fumes can be a hazard to your health and cause nausea \/ headaches from extended periods of driving in the fumes. If you have a sealed battery such as a Optima or AGM type, then you do not need a box but will need a battery mounting bracket\/enclosure for the battery group size you have.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">1a.

This should be a fail-safe in case you have a short in the future from improper routing and rubbing of wires. Without this breaker, if you have a short you will have a car on fire being 10ft of battery cable will be glowing red hot its entire length thru the car. If this out of the question for you, then at least install a Battery Kill switch 4inch off the battery in line with the positive wire, if a problem arises, you can kill the battery power quickly before the damage escalates to a fire.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--md-33-34p vce-col--xs-1 vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-last vce-col--lg-last vce-col--xl-last\" id=\"el-6e681394\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-6e681394\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-6e681394\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-container vce-single-image--align-left\"><div class=\"vce vce-single-image-wrapper\" id=\"el-f3b75c45\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-f3b75c45\"><figure><div class=\"vce-single-image-figure-inner\" style=\"width: 750px;\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-inner vce-single-image--absolute\" style=\"width: 100%; padding-bottom: 73.3333%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vce-single-image\"  width=\"750\" height=\"550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/stinger-circuit-breaker-SCBM150-main-320x235.jpg 320w, https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/stinger-circuit-breaker-SCBM150-main-480x352.jpg 480w, https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/stinger-circuit-breaker-SCBM150-main-750x550.jpg 750w\" src=\"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/stinger-circuit-breaker-SCBM150-main-750x550.jpg\" data-img-src=\"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/stinger-circuit-breaker-SCBM150-main.jpg\" data-attachment-id=\"167\"  alt=\"\" title=\"stinger-circuit-breaker-SCBM150-main\" \/><\/div><\/div><figcaption hidden=\"\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mounting and WiringTypically the battery is mounted in the rearrest of the trunk, but it could be mounted anywhere you choose.You can attach the ground at the rear seat buckle location&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":161,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bst_post_transparent":"","_bst_post_title":"","_bst_post_layout":"","_bst_post_sidebar_id":"","_bst_post_content_style":"","_bst_post_vertical_padding":"","_bst_post_feature":"","_bst_post_feature_position":"","_bst_post_header":false,"_bst_post_footer":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-159","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-preparation","category-turbo-how-to"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":168,"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159\/revisions\/168"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/king6fab.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
