I'm finally getting around to installing my fuse block and wiring some stuff in. Heated grips suggest a 4-5 amp fuse. Smallest I have on hand 3 or 10.
While I'm out, what size should I get for the Datel LED volt meter?

Well, if you are going out anyway, get a 5 amp for the grips. :biggrin:

The 3 amp should be plenty for the volt meter. You could probably use a 1 amp if you had one. It shouldn't pull any power.

If you don't go out, put the 10 amp in the grips and 3 amp in the Datel. Basically if the grips short out, the 10 amp will blow anyway.......or if you don't feel comfortable doing that, use the 3 amp and don't use high heat.

Weather is great, and I have a RC51! :fing02: Went to buy some 5 amps and some stick on zip tie anchor bases. :cheerleader:
