[QUOTE="Steven, post: 72089, member: 544311"] Anything with ballasts or motors needs more power to start up than it does to keep running. With motors sometimes 2X as much power. Neon lights have ballasts that turn the 12-volt in your car into about 10,000volts. when you fire up your neon lights. If when running they draw a total of say 10 amps, then I would use at least a 15 amp fuse, thius will allow for a surge of power when the ligts first turn on [/QUOTE]
