Default EFX 800 WATT 4 CHAN AMP need help

I have a EFX 800 WATT 4 CHAN AMP from EBAY cough. I blew the 100watt fuse that goes from the battery to the amp, power wire, and I was wondering if I could use a 60watt amp fuse because I cant find the 100watt ANYWHERE.

yes you can, but most likely it will get blown again, maybe right away even
Check your wiring first to make sure that you dont have a short on the way to your amp. BTW fuses are marked with Ampers, not Watts, so try looking for a 100A fuse instead, you might get more luck For instance I think Crutchfield has them

What kind of fuse is it? also what size are the 2 fuses in the amp itself, the fuse in the power cable does not have to be any bigger then the total of the 2 in the amp, a little bigger can't hurt, EG: if you have 2 x 20A fuses in the amp, a 50 or 60 amp in the power cable should be fine.
That said, you need to find out why the 100A fuse went in the first place. 94
