Don't know anything about them. I'm not a fan of breakers on a vehicle, I like to keep it simple. Others may have different opinions.

Circuit breakers have a much narrower temperature range than fuses and relays. Their max operating temp is 185 F. In my opinion, that is too low for engine compartment mounting.
Good info here....I'm at the same spot...preparing for fridge and additional electric needs. Thanks for the thread.
Which Blue Sea Fuse blocks did you install?

Here is the fuse block ST*Blade Fuse Block With Cover - 12 Circuit with Negative Bus - PN 5026 - Blue Sea Systems
A lot has changed since my original posted. I'll to update it soon.
from the battery I have this circuit breaker 187-Series Thermal Circuit Breaker Panel Mount - Blue Sea Systems wired to a cole hersee latching solenoid that is turned on by a momentary switch inside the cab. Once engaged the solenoid doesn't draw any amperage. The solenoid then powers the fuse block that I mounted on the drivers kick panel. I actually made a new kick panel out of sheet aluminum that I bent out so the fuse block fits behind it and attached the stock kick panel edging to it.
