Great idea. You can make a very sleek and light mod when using external power.
Please post when finished.
Oh, a tip; I'm not sure how you were planning on installing the fuse but there's a great lighter plug on eBay that has a built in, easy to replace (by unscrewing the tip) fuse.

I plan on it but first I have to get my battery one built first. I've thought about the lighter plug but I'm not sure it would handle the amps, I might just run a dedicated wire, as far as the fuse I was thinking about this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/161226669125?lpid=82&chn=ps&ul_ref=http%253A%252F%252Frover.ebay.com%252Frover%252F1%252F711-117182-37290-0%252F2%253Fmtid%253D1588%2526kwid%253D1%2526crlp%253D53601919689_324272%2526itemid%253D161226669125%2526targetid%253D87946144449%2526rpc%253D0.19%2526rpc_upld_id%253D53285%2526rlsatarget%253D%2526device%253Dm%2526mpre%253Dhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.ebay.com%25252Fitm%25252Flike%25252F161226669125%25253Flpid%25253D82%252526chn%25253Dps%2526adtype%253Dpla%2526gclid%253DCJS985nFnMcCFQ2OaQod3O4AZQ%2526srcrot%253D711-117182-37290-0%2526rvr_id%253D881524363744 and install it at the bottom of tube but I need to measure some to see if it would work

This will fit inside a .750 tube with the corners rounded off using the low profile mini fuse it's rated for 20A which is fine for me I'd rather blow a 20A fuse before the 25A SMD one goes http://www.mouser.com/Search/m_ProductDetail.aspx?Keystone-Electronics%2f3588%2f&qs=sGAEpiMZZMtRmoYvq3OwzPu1j8c6R%252bXbiEp%2fc%252bjR%2fsE%3d

Ah yes, looks like a car fuse. But may I ask why you want to use a fuse? If you make sure everything's wired up like it should then there's no chance it's going to blow unless something would be seriously wrong with the board itself.



I think any connection to the vehicle, especially one that will draw up to 23A, should be fused.  This is not to protect the mod, but the rest of the car.
