Hello, I'm a new member to the forum but have been poking around for some time. I'm hoping someone is kind enough to help me out with some simple questions and concerns regarding hardwiring.
I've bought an "Add a Fuse"/Fuse Tap (this one) and a 12V to 5V converter with two USB connectors on it (this one).
So... my first concern is the fuses that come with the fuse tap seem to be 20amp, should I get some different ones? Surely 3A is enough for the converter?
My other concern is about putting load on the fuse box, I'm not entirely sure how this works, but won't tapping in and drawing more power cause an overload and potentially blow the ECU?
Thank you for your time!
