Can a Low-profile mini fuse be replaced by a mini fuse?

[TechnoBuff]

Is there any caveat to replacing a low-profile fuse with a mini blade one when trying to hardwire a dash cam using an "add-a-circuit"?

I was looking to buy a small batch amount of "add-a-circuit" for future installs...

The legs of different (physical) sized fuses will not fit.. by design. That said.. a hammer could probably force it..

I looked through the owner's manual of the vehicle -- Nissan Maxima 2012 -- and it states that a low-profile fuse could be replaced by a mini fuse without affecting performance.

Thnx for the response..

Type A is the one that will fit in an addafuse socket

I have used type B before with no issues.

Good morning. I'm new here, and yes, having issues with the install of my cam in my 2015 Ford Taurus Limited.
I am disabled so I have to rely on others to help with the under dash work. When I purchased the cam, they supposedly matched the wiring kit to the car model I have. Not the case as they sent me Micro 3's as the inline fuses. Turns out, I have the low profile mini.

My question is, I see above mentions of Type A and Type B, but the only reference I have lists MAXI, ATO, Micro 3, Mini, Micro 2, Low Profile Mini. Thus, which would be the Type A or Type B?

Thanks for your help. Stay well.
