Title: in line fuse
Post by: johnny bravo on January 14, 2015, 04:53:56 pm

my 7.5 fuse blew this morningm   wired battery wrong,    not concentrating,  anyway fuse blew resulting in no power , controller.
i ve put a 15 amp fuse in,       controller back on,     what is the lowest fuse i can put in without any damage being caused.
7.5.  10, 15, 20, 30amp.

i had visions of having to get a new controller,   thankfull for the in-line fuse saving it.

can you put a too high fuse in.

I think put in too high a fuse and do same again risk damaging controller

I put in 10amp although I'm sure  they recommend a 7-5 amp
