120VAC Arc Fault Circuit Breakers are specialized breakers and expensive compared to a standard breaker.

x2 - I've never heard of a 12v arc fault breaker.
I've worked to eliminate the plug in type 12v breakers, as they're terrible. The cheapo ones I've experienced created a huge voltage drop, and also haven't reliably opened at anything close to their rated current.
I have a few Blue Sea / Cooper Bussman marine grade non resetting breakers, they work well and have a lot less voltage drop.
If you have a circuit that is constantly blowing fuses, describe it to us, it sounds like something is wrong, and putting in a breaker could do more harm than good.
