Do the Hawkeye units need an inline fuse. And if so what amp? How long is the power and transducer cables? Thanks

Yes. It has an in line fuse and mine is switched. . the power line is 24". Transducer cable is 20' long i believe.

No inline fuse. The cable length was more than adequate to fit from my dash to the transom with 5 - 7 feet of extra cable on my 190. Works well in average depth bodies of water, does not read well in deep waters.

These units have no fuse. There is a fuse holder and my even have a fuse in it but they are not hooked up. And the power wire is not a proper gauge to be safe.power cord exploded in my wifes hand and burneb her. I have photos. But cant post here

The kit comes with a coil of zip wire. I purchased and used a heavier guage. You'll need wire-cutter pliers and stripper pliers. The speakers have spring loaded insert connectors and the amp has standard post and finger-nut insert connectors. Each speaker is wired separately to the amp and connected to its marked post connectors (positive and negative) on the back. The wires will be distinguishable by gold or silver color, a white stripe on one wire or ridges molded into the plastic insulation on one wire so you can distinguish positive and negative.

There is no in-line fuse or any wires included with the horn. It had been a little while since I installed the horn, but I believe the horn draws 5 amps

It comes with a fuse built in. All you gotta do it wire it to your battery and then to your amp.

I had a fuse blow and simply checked it and replaced the fuse. It is on the back near the power cord. These power supplies are very rugged. I suggest you simply check out the fuse.

These come with wiring in the box but you can always go bigger gage. The longer the distance from amp to speaker, the heavier gage is needed. I recommend buying wire you can actually see in person. I bought a kit on line and the wire was not as heavy a gage as advertised. Marine grade is supposed to have better weather resistance- a dubious claim for most since the moisture gets in where you splice the connector. I soldered the connection and used heat shrink tubes over the splice to minimize moisture getting into the wire. At the amp end I did the same using a fork type connector to go under the amp screws. I pull the amp in the fall and reinstall every spring. These come with wiring in the box but you can always go bigger gage. The longer the distance from amp to speaker, the heavier gage is needed.

Two tweeters plus crossovers. Use a 1 amp fuse on + power line to protect tweeter.

I don't your "standard" wire. I screw 20AWG to bindind posts, bought at department store, about 10ft long, with speakers about 5ft from amplifier. Be consistent with the polarity. Those speakers are not for audio purists anyway, so any sound degradation is practically unnoticable. 18AWG is also good for home, anything thicker, stiffer and more expensive is a waste of money. Don't worry too much about what they prove with their super-expensive test equipment readings

I bought a wiring kit that has 8 gauge wire for the amplifier power and ground wires. The power wire connects directly at the battery + (a 17 foot wire). The ground connects at the chassis (3 foot wire). Your 18 awg wire is for radio only. Do not use same wire for amplifier.

Manufacturers website says 120volts/470watts. No amp info. Sounds perfect for my Semi with 1000watt inverter and limited space. Gotta get me one.

Yes but it's a fuse built into the unit, not an inline power fuse like you'll see on bigger amps.

I bought the wiring installation kit for my install. It comes with everything you need to install the amp. It has a inlne fuse. Just wanted to be extra safe. I have had no problems and the amp sounds great. Lot of sound from compact amp.

I used a 10 amp fuse and it worked very well. My amp meter never pulled more than 5.5 amps in any mode. Hope this info helps.

The outputs out of the amp itself uses phoenix connectors, which look similar to molex plugs. I've made custom cables from Phoenix on one end to banana plugs to my wall patch-panel, but it does suck when trying to use any reasonable gauge wire. I tried to find pre-made cables with no luck. With that said, the cables still work fine. I'd suggest using electrical tape or heat shrink tubing on the Phoenix connectors.

I cant remember the amperage of the fuse but i used the inline bulb fuse that came with the Knu Konseptz 4 guage wiring kit. Its the best stuff you can get! Only like 25$ & all the wiring you need to install a 4k system. Best of luck to ya bro
