regarding fuses.

So landrover fit 15A per each power outlet.
Other manufactures have used 20A

It's done so that you can plug in things like,
coffee heater
tyre compressor
fridge
and any universal item ppl can dream up

Regarding the displays, the fuse is there to protect the wiring really, but any fuse you have between 1-5A is sensible

Laughing , I think it was last year u know , couldn’t do much after the last surgery so took the spare time I had available ensuring I had everything to hand when I was ready , just been pottering around doing the small bits

Slowly getting there, got to get the old upper glove box out next and swap them over with this other one

Thks as always buddy Thumbs Up

for when you plug 24 iPhones in ? Laughing

The number of power connections you seem to be looking at, next mod will be a trailer to carry the batteries round with you.

Laughing , at least u made it an even number

Used the wire as I had some spare so thought I might as well use it up

Hopefully there’s enough there now for camping trips etc or the grandkids decide to plug everything in Whistle

That’s a good idea ref the trailer , might end up with one as they grow up and want to bring more and more stuff Thumbs Up
