We have a 2008 T@da and the in-line battery fuze is rusted and no longer functional.  I want to replace it, but I'm not sure what amperage to use.  There are 20 Amp and 30 Amp fuses available.  Anyone have experience with this?

    Look closely at the fuse holder - it should have a marking with the amperage. Not sure about 2008 models, but more recent ones are 30 amps.

    You might also look in the DC fuse panel at the converter. The other end of the battery + line  may also have a fuse (probably labelled "battery charger" or something similar). I would match the fuse at the battery to the fuse in the converter. As OubackAZ noted, both of these fuses are 30 amps in recent T@Bs.

    Or, is this one of those fuses that is mounted on the tongue of your T@DA? If so, they are available at auto parts stores, according to a recent post from a DM T@B owner.

    Thanks folks - The condition of the old fuse made it impossible to determine amperage, but I went with a 30 Amp based on the tips presented.  Thanks so much!

    I put this on my new Retro. 30A battery fuse AND cut off switch. I had the same one as yours and heard they didn't last long....
