Still not getting why the guy with the ballast install needed the breakers

He sourced the Johnson pumps on his own, and apparently they draw more then the Jabsco pumps. With both running, the breaker I supplied would trip. The breaker box has unused spots, but they take an odd type breaker that one leg bolts to a buss bar and the other leg fits a spade terminal.

Oh, it looks like exile did release a true marine speaker with a grill mounted tweeter.

They are odd breakers. I had a hard time finding a replacement one. Typical breakers are a couple of bucks, my dealer wanted $20 for one. I ended up finding a place that would sale me two fow $10 a piece.

I got it now. You had me run power from the batts to the Rule 1100's and the switch power came from under the dash in one of the open spots and I had to just add a 25 amp fuse.

Those rules only draw 3-4 amps, with a max draw of 6 amps. Those Johnsons recommend using a 25A fuse or breaker for each pump. Ive run 2 Jabsco pumps on a single 20A breaker.

The impeller pumps do have a higher spike when they first start up, this is due to the friction of the impeller on the housing. Once moving, the current draw drops. Aerator pumps dont have that friction, so they have a very small spike upon start up.
