Default Fuses

I just got everything for a stereo. Should I have a fuse after the battery and before the power cap?

Fuse within 10 inches from the battery,

Power Cap on the desk as a paper weight. (Read the FAQ for the physics.)

I read the FAQ..

it is not useless but the money could have been better spent in other areas. IT is VERY important to put that fuse near the battery........

Good move!

The nintendo will encounter much more use and although it doesn't help your charging system, it is always a good time.
