    I'm going be wiring up some lights with an add-a-fuse to the fuse box.
    What amp fuse will be best for two LED lights?

    At 27W, the draw will be approximately 2 1/2 amps from 12V. A 5 amp fuse should be adequate.

    Second thought--where does the 30V spec come from?

    Are you talking about your home's service panel or your truck's fuse box??
