Hi Cameron,

Generally I think a circuit breaker is used with leckies rather than a fuse. (or none at all, but a circuit breaker would be a good idea)

p.s. Was nice to meet you today, hope you had a smooth trip home.

Cheers
Tony

edit: I noticed Simmo has put up an extract of a mg manual - you can also get the circuit breakers from an electrical supply biz or some chandlerys (a lot cheaper I think). Battery world had them when I was last after one

A 50amp Circuit Breaker should be fine, you can buy them at Bias Boating or similar.
