Go to an auto parts store and ask for a fuse link. It will look like a wire
and cost about $10 US.

My wife bought me an 1750 watt Inverter at Canadian Tire. Good deal -
$299.00 Cdn (I think). Anyway...

I have all the appropriate guage wires (1/0), connectors, etc., but the
installation manual calls for a 250Adc fuse to connect next to (and
between)
the batteries. Doing the math, I think I can get away with smaller (i.e.
200A) fuse, but regardless, they are still expensive. So far I have
located
a few suppliers, but the prices are in the $75-$112 range. I do have a
call
into a lifttruck company (and thinking perhaps golfcarts might be a
source).

Does anyone have any suggestions on a source for a fuse and holder that is
less expensive?
