Exactly, like happened this afternoon when I spliced into the circuit with the car on Accessory (listening to the radio, duh). Fuse blew. Big deal. Finished wiring up my power plug, turned the car off, replaced the fuse, turned it back on, worked like a charm. Now, if I decided to put a 30A fuse in because I wanted to run my cooler off the same circuit . . . my car could catch fire and causes me to run off a cliff, breaking every bone in my body.
In that case, I'd have my wife send definingmoment the hospital room I'm in, so he can come by and laugh at me.
The project's now finished, save for the fact that my old-@$$ iPod Charger is flaky and likes to wiggle out of the socket. A new charger is on the way, but the dock, light and audio interface work PERFECTLY. I'll take final pics tonight and rewrite the DIY tomorrow.
