Good to hear that you have it working better. If you do still end up blowing fuses occasionally - going up hills, etc., if it were me, I would just put a larger fuse in there.

I have a 10Ah battery (LiFePO4) and I put a 35 amp fuse in. This probably exceeds what the battery is designed for, but it's been running for 3 years with no noticeable problems or damage to the battery.

I hope the inline fuse works for a long time (now i need to try and find 35amp slow burn fuse)
