Re: Original camping pod gas hob

Re: Irish Bongo Bash 2018: County Down

Re: Split Charge Relay kits - warning!

Yes the danger is that an un-fused cable will be damaged and short to earth, where currents exceeding 200-500 Amps can be expected. In one design, no names mentioned, there is only one fuse, on the basis that the Split Charge Relay is mounted very to the battery terminal, and the length of cable is...
