[QUOTE="Water Bear, post: 8822156, member: 673826"] You don't really [I]need [/I]the upstream 300 honestly but if you're going to fuse it 300 is the right number. The upstream protects you in the instance that the cable pops out of your distribution block and touches metal. If turning the fan off helps, your electrical is definitely overloaded. For the wattage you have more battery and more alt is called for. Assuming your car won't agree with us about a new alt, more battery is the way to go here. Lithium is the best solution but is the most expensive (assuming you want a COTS solution) and you need to ensure that your voltage is within spec at all times. [/QUOTE]
