Protects your trolling motor from electrical damage

Actually, this is a Minn Kota unit, not Humminbird. I just bought a new Minn Kota Terrova trolling motor and everything I read said you should have 60A protection of some sort. After researching, this was the best way to go (instead of a fuse box). The unit shipped very quickly and installed easily. I bought a 4 gauge battery cable to go from my battery to this breaker and mounted it next to the battery. I use 6 gauge for the rest of the wiring to the trolling motor. The only small issue is that cable posts don't give a lot of room to put a large ring connector on it. The battery cable I bought did just fit, but it is tight. The whole unit is much smaller than I thought it was going to be (not bad, I just thought it was bigger). I have not had it trip yet, which is good, but reseting looked easy with a little small lever in the middle of the unit. I feel good about it protecting my $1300 trolling motor.

I use these inline between my Solar panels and my controllers and also between the controllers leading to my battery packs. They replaced fuses that I got from Radio Shack. The fuse holders were made of plastic and would melt even before the fuse blew. No such problem now. The manual set is also a good feature.
