Hello:
- for those that have hooked up an air compressor directly to
the battery, what size fuse did you end of using
. I have a battery maintainer with the terminal adaptors on
the battery with an in-line 3 amp fuse;
..male/female plug for the battery maintainer
..figured I could use a small tire compressor as well rather
than use the cigarette adaptor from my car - no garage
plug
..well, the battery maintainer has a 3 amp fuse which blows
with the air compressor; put in a 5 amp - still blows
..was considering putting in a 7.5 or 10 amp; when you using the
air compressor, it would only be for a very short time; a few lbs to
inflate the tire; however; the battery maintainer would be on all
night/ day etc but would only be drawing 1.5 amps or so regardless
of the 7.5 or 10 amp fuse
..anyways, for those that have wired an air compressor directly
to the battery, what size fuse did you find did not blow with the
compressor?
thanks...Ken
