I have a Phoenix gold VB140 circuit breaker.
How can I use it? (how should it be used?)

It goes out by the battery,with in 12 inches of the battery just as if you would put your fuse,this VB140 just has a switch to shut off power instead of undoing the wire or fuse,i have one on my setup and it's great,been on for over 10 years.

Ok thanks man, I found it in a box from a guy where I bought my PG outlaw amp. Got it for free.

the only problem with the breakers is that they use heat to know when to blow. After prolonged music blasting they can pop too easy if the motor is really hot and if its heated the wire up already.

i use it in conjunction with my fused battery terminals as more of a quick disconnect, then actual protection
