Hello again, all!
I am still loving my '13 27RLSWE trailer, and have done some recent upgrades to make it more "boondocking-ready."
I purchased 4 Interstate GC2 6V batteries, which are running in series and parallel. One thing I noticed when removing the dealer-installed battery, is that there is no in-line fuse. The positive lead, however, runs to the frame and is attached to what looks like a short breaker (shortstop?). Everything I have read online demands an in-line fuse, so I was planning on installing one just for extra protection in the box where the batteries are mounted on the tongue. I have 4AWG wiring interconnecting the batteries, as well as the leads off of the batteries. What size fuse should I get? 30A enough?
