How to wire to a fused 12V source?
I need to figure out how to wire something to a fused 12V source. It needs 12V constantly. Would I connect a fuse and a wire at the fuse block? I don't know much about electrical and could use some help.

I'm wiring the converter to lockup with a toggle. A few different sites say to use a 10 amp fuse and coonect it to the fuse box somehow

But so you know, thats not whats normally referred to as a "Constant" 12v termination. You actually would not want that constant. You want the circuit to only be live when the car is actually running then have the Manual toggle from there.

I guess my question is this...I have the wire that needs power, a fuse, and the fuse block. Does the wire connect at the backside of the fuse box? then just plug the fuse in like normal?
