Attaching a fuse to a new set of batteries?
Due to various craziness in life, I let the batteries on my rig expire, so the only purpose they have is a core charge refund. This time around, I'm getting two 12 volt jars, using 36" 0 gauge cables...

{alarm} will work fine because the resistance of the alarm is much much higher than that of the fuse, and so the high current will not flow through the alarm--it will be limited to whatever the alarm usually uses. It's no different than connecting the alarm directly to the battery.
If alarm is in parallel to the big fuse that is sitting on the Pos terminal - as it was suggested - then whatever high current flows through the big fuse and blows it, will flow through this alarm a moment later.
