Too many toys (no room for add-a-fuse)

I've already got an add-a-fuse in my dash fuse box to run my CB (on the 15A pwr outlet slot). I'm adding a dash cam and it needs TWO add-a-fuses, one to battery and one to accessory (always on vs on with key).

There are only two fuses to the battery (15A pwr outlet and 20A dr lock) and they are right next to each other. So there's no room to put two add-a-fuse blocks in there.

Help!

 

You could change the added fuse to be a larger load and then split off that line to two inline fuses. They make Add-a-fuse with 3 fuses for this situation too.

 

I thought about that, but I don't want to piggy-back on my CB power. It's got enough line noise already.

That sounds like the right plan.

 

Time for another fuse block .

You will be surprised how fast it gets filled up.

 

It's really easy to run a line from the battery into the cab. I would use the single add-a-fuse and connect that to a 30A SPDT relay and run a fused 14ga wire to the relay. Output the relay to a new fuse block.

 

You could always run the always on power straight to the battery with an inline fuse to eliminate the need for that add a fuse.

Alternatively you could do this with the CB to cut down on some of the electrical noise and free up an add a fuse slot.

Personally all my accessories are run to an axilary fuse panel for power and then I have 1 add a fuse that is only used to trigger relays for my switched power needs.

 

There are so many different options .

OP pick what works best for you.

 

Run another line to the battery and add a fuse box.
