[Mobile-Portable] Recommended In-Line Fuses?

[Gary P. Fiber]

Marine fuse holders or a decent car stereo shop will have nice holders. 
Some of those Audio Power amps take wire and fuses like you are running 
a mobile RF Amplifier.
Blade type fuses are what the car makers are using as you likely know. I 
would also weight that into my decision as you can likely purchase those 
most anywhere.

A good electrical grease, NO-OX, on the blades or some other electrical 
connection protector should help keep corrosion from the connection. I 
use NO-OX and star (shake proof) lock washers when I bonded my vehicle. 
I check those connections about once a year and clean up any , reapply 
the NO-OX. I have had mostly no trouble except for one that does get 
road water.
