does it matter which fuse to connect it to? 10, 15, 30 AMP? Thanks in advance.

I believe I connectd mine to a 10 amp, but I don't think it really matters.

I'm 10 is plenty. This adapter is only capable of 1.2 Amps output. Probably the bigger question is whether it goes on a pre or post ignition circuit. In other words, so you want it to be off when the ignition is off?

The unit is well built. I'm running it as 30A per fuse with no troubles. If it were total that would be less than 5a per fuse which is pretty useless.

You must use the same fuse rated for that slot, (10,15,20) the second slot use a lower Amperage (5, 7.5). Put it like this, I have a Bel STi-R plus, 2 escort lives connected, and ALP dual, on three sets of 10A and 5A. They are all running at optimal power. Remember, the slot where the blades are is the spot with the fuse you pulled from your panel. The second slot acts as a safety for your devices that your tapping. Don't go crazy with that slot because if a surge happens you can fry your things. Like I stated above 5 or 7.5 is sufficient enough, even with all of my things, I never went over 5A.

should be less than 15A. the wire gauge is thin and plugs into a cigg socket which also are often 15A mine is now in storage for 3 years so i cant check the fuse.

from any power sorce, like the fuse panel , pick a fuse that as power only when the ignision is on, need a fuse that is 15 to 20 amps.

Yes, the maximum power this device will handle being passed through safely is 10 Amps. So do not put a fuse larger than 10 Amp into it. The source being 25 Amp is no problem, and should be higher than you plan to consume. (i.e., you don't want to put a 10 Amp device on a 5 amp circuit as it will be starved for power.

40 to 80 amps. tube style. when you go to buy, they will recommend the fuse style you need. just remember to order the right amp size. your amp will recommend what size fuse to use.

Oh the fuse is huge, I think 50 amps. You can get a smaller fuse though and substitute it into the gold plated connector

Sure! As long as the total amperage drawn by the lights does not exceed 30 amps, which is what the fuse is rated at. Hope this helps!

2.1 Amps max output at 5 Volts = 10.5 Watts = 0.875 Amps at 12 Volts so a 1 amp fuse would work just fine.

If 15 amps are needed, then a 25 amp fuse should be used. You want about 20% headroom over the maximum current draw. If the holder has a 30 amp fuse you can just remove it and install the correct size for your application. Do not use a 30 amp fuse for a 15 amp draw, as it could potentially cause an over current condition destroying whatever it is your trying to protect with the fuse.

Yes. You just need to find an ANL fuse of the right voltage/current rating.

I cant remember the amperage of the fuse but i used the inline bulb fuse that came with the Knu Konseptz 4 guage wiring kit. Its the best stuff you can get! Only like 25$ & all the wiring you need to install a 4k system. Best of luck to ya bro

Yes a 10 amp fuse will be adequate. Remember these are LED lights and draw far fewer Amps that a typical bulb does.

Adding to what others have said, I would go a little higher than the max Amp rating but also limit according to your battery. My unit feeds anything from 225Ah to 360Ah battery banks. If you use the 10-15% of Ah capacity rule then a 30A fuse is fine. I would have to swap in a much smaller fuse if charging a smaller battery bank and of course limit the PV power coming in or connect it to a smaller array.

I used a 10 amp fuse and it worked very well. My amp meter never pulled more than 5.5 amps in any mode. Hope this info helps.

One is AC and the other DC. The 30 amp fuse is on the AC supply side and the 55 amps is what is provided to the DC BUS (I'm not an expert but a 120V/30A source could provide up to 330 AMPS DC) Check out this website for more info... http://www.batterystuff.com/kb/tools/ac-to-dc-amperage-conversion-run-through-an-inverter.html
