Who Carries Circuit Brerakers
Anyone know of an audio shop who carries circuit breakers. I have a Phoenix Gold VB140 in my system in my truck. The lever isnt working right. I have tried best buy and circuit city and such and I guess now its down to the small shops. I know the phoenix gold arent making anymore but Stinger makes them and I can order on ebay just looking to see if I could get one this weekend somewhere.
This is what it looks like in case people are wondering. They are a great addition to a system because if you need to do anything you just hit one button and it shuts power off. And if it trips there is no fuse to replace.

I wouldn't bother. Circuit breakers are a nice idea and all, but they suck. I had a high quality one once and it just fell apart one day when I tried resetting something.
Just get a nice ANL fuse holder.
*Edit* yeah, just like what you said in your first post, the lever just stops working.
It happens to all of them eventually. I just say fuckit and get a nice fuse holder and a couple of fuses along with it.

Otherwise, if you're still set on it: Toby @ T&J Elite's carries them.

If I do have one, its one I took out of something. I don't use circuit breakers, because I think they suck. I've had too many problems with them tripping for no reason, and I've seen more than a couple refuse to trip when they were really needed.
Go with a fuse. Its not that tough to pull one side of a fuse to work on the system, and provided your wiring is sound, blowing them should be very, very rare. On that rare occasion though, I'd rather trust my car to a fuse.
