[QUOTE="purpledog07, post: 630196, member: 22687"] The fuse is there to protect the cable but its the amps flowing through the cable that dictate the cable and fuse rating. The cable may need to be thicker to avoid volt drop over distance, don't just use the cable you already have. TBF this system all needs to be matched, taking into account the ah of both batteries, dynamo output and length of cable to be used. Easiest way is to look at the kits available from 12v planet or VWP etc. and compare with what you have. These guys have done all the working out for you. Only volt drop will be specific to you based on cable length. [/QUOTE]
