    Fuses

    Hi all, I am adding a second battery etc, and have the electrics for the gps etc coming from the common terminal, which has a main fuse for the electronics there.

    My question is this, is there a compact "circuit breaker" that can be reset with a push of a button. I don't want to drop a fuse under the seat, at night, in rough weather and can't find it etc etc etc All info appreciated, thanks in advance.

    Know how to hook it up, now have to spend time on "making it look neat"......

    yes go to dick smiths or jaycar you can buy dc cicuit breakers. However the amount of times you should ever have to change the fuse (never hopefully) I wouldn't bother with it as circuit beakers are expensive and can cause more drama then they are worth in a marine environment.

    Blue Seas make WATERPROOF breakers but they are generally used on the main power feed line as they start at 15 Amps. As for dropping fuses, carry a bunch of spares. They are dirt cheap.
