Would it matter having inline fuses along with fuses in the battery box?

Keep the inline fuses. That's the way the engineers designed them. Your battery box fuses are fine to use in conjunction.

each fuse will have a small voltage drop across it. not sure if it will affect to overall performance of the charger / maintainer function of the battery. I would recommend following the manufacturer instructions. I have had mine for a year or so now. Very happy with it. Some times my boat sits for weeks. Battery is always very strong - cranks right over

Wouldn't hurt a thing. Battery fuses are rated for much higher current. The charger would have a different (Lower) current rating.

I did not use a inline fuse. Mine was installed by a licensed electrician who is also an electrical engineer and the issue of needing a fuse didn't come up. If you research the manufacturers specifications, you'll find a little more info on protections that are built into this transformer.

If the wires are not coming from the fused box, you should use a fused so you can prevent a fire.

Easily if you know a thing or two about splicing the line. The current loss from the additional lights isn't an issue. Personally I take the fuse off it tends to die out often so direct fixes it for me

It does not have any built in fuse however I did not install an inline fuse. It works fine with minimal heat as is.

Hello. This amplifier comes with a fuse on the body of the amplifier. It does not come with an inline fuse.

You can certainly connect it directly to the battery; however that connection needs to be fused appropriately. Also, "the winch" you referenced may be an issue since the auxiliary fuse panel is only rated for 100 amps. If you wire directly to the battery I would ensure that you have an inline 100 amp fuse close to your battery. I installed mine with a reset-able breaker (100 amp) between the battery and the fuse panel.

Yes but it's a fuse built into the unit, not an inline power fuse like you'll see on bigger amps.

As long as its 12 volts. If its more than 1 amp get an inline fuse so you dont destroy them. Hope this helps.

No...but it was easy to get a fuse adapter from the auto store...it came with a wire...just splice and tape up...all nice and tucked away in your fuse box.

I'm not sure just yet because I haven't installed them yet. I plan on using the expanded circuit fuse which I haven't ordered yet or brought from a auto store, because I plan on using the fuse but when I do I will most definitely let you know if you can or not

I have mine ran through the factory dash switch. You could run it directly to a 12 volt battery, but I strongly encourage putting an inline fuse in.

I haven't heard of that one. You could put a diode inline and they should work.

Yes but you need to research where to put in fuses for safety reasons. Also when you add in the cost of batteries wire etc... How long before you recoup your money.

No, there is no onboard fuse so you should def add one inline with your power source.

Yes. As long as you still leave the 10a fuses that were supplied. I ran a fused 20a #12 wire from the battery to a relay (not included) that is switched on when the key is turned on I attached the 2 supplied power wires with the 10a inline fuses to the output of the relay. Hope this helps.

You would still need to ground it separately. Usually you can find a suitable ground very close to the fuse box.
