Which fuse for a light

[DougK]

I am looking to add a fuse for my 12 volt batter 8Ah. THe Battery will power the Lightforce 170 and a Brinkmann MaxII using the external cigarette plug.

Can I use an ATC Blade Fuseholder ATC Fuseholder ??

I was looking at the inline glass fuse but I am finding them harder to find. I know the ATC fuse is larger than the mini ATM but space is not an issue.

What are your thoughts?

Also I am replacing and inline glass fuse that was 30 amp 250 volts with an ATC 30. Will this work?
thanks
Doug

When I did my setup which is similiar to yours a retired electrical engineer suggested using a 15 amp fuse. I use the ATC fuses.

Yes, that should work. For my vehicles 12V acc plugs, I use self reseting circuit breakers.
