You only got one?
Or slow blow if that wasn't

You mean the holder? The fuse is gonna get hot when it melts. As long as the wiring doesn't get too hot before that happens it's good.

yep - just got one :BangHead::BangHead: . Yea, the holder was warm -- I may go ahead and get the 50 just to see how it goes.. run the thing with the cover off so i can easily check the fuse holder a few times.
 
Mike you have a ammeter in your meter? Might want to check the draw might possibly be it is just drawing to much.

Is the holder in the cable? That's better than on a board (or pinned down to one) when it does blow its not heating up something else.
Once I blow a fuse I always get a few extra's. Especially if hard to find. It WILL happen again.

yea - directly on the power cable - one on each battery - you know.. I did think of getting more than 1...

The 50 get a regular not a slow blow. (ok no other way to say it)

Correct. I was saying a slower 40 might help if it wasn't already slo-blo. Since it is an actual higher draw while running hard. You want to give it a little extra (within what the circuit can handle) would be good to know more about wire size/circuit. Do you have a manual, or does it show if the 40 was actually correct. I never assume that the last guy put the right fuse in! If it ever had a direct short, the fuse size won't matter much. It would be a fraction of a second longer to take out a 50+ vs a 40
 
yea - same fuse on both sides when I checked recently. the manual I have is just a simple users guide.. no good technical info.
 
That will let you know if there is a problem both sides should be close, could be something stupid like a dirty motor brush.
 
Prob a pia on that thing but that was kind of where I was going with it AFTER HE CHECKS THE DRAW!:poke:
 
Damn mike just check the F**king draw already! Before hoppy blows up
