petegardner_901 Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Morning all. Any Sparks on here to advise...?? I have fitted a 10 blade fuse box on the Spitfire 1500 and wired the cigar (!) lighter into a fuse on its own. What size fuse should I use here? I have for the moment stuck a 25A in but bearing in mind I'll probably not use it to light cigars - just accesories occasionally - is 25 too high? Thanks P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68vitesse Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 A fuse is to protect the wiring not the item connected, so I would fit a fuse just under the rating of the cable used. Just my opinion. Regards Paul 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot-on x2 re above. They were never called cigarette lighter, always cigar lighter. Regards. Richard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
