What Amp of fuses are people using for the red and yellow wire for this dash cam hard wire kit ?

My yellow constant in piggy bank a fuse which is 20A

Red one is piggy bank a 5A fuse

Ddpai mini 1 + 2, nothing in the manual about the fuses
 
Because the camera uses very little power .. and the gauge of wire to the camera is high (thin) you can go pretty low.. 5 amps is lots.
 
I'm running a 2A fuse on the 10A circuit of which my Blackvue is connected to B+. It has yet to trigger the fuse. 2A is AOK for this kind of usage. If it trips the fuse you have either connected (and sparked) a wire from cam or the cam is faulty. 2A on a 12V-circuit is really a lot of power, that shouldn't be able to pull!
