Another point of view...Alan, I did read your link. I'm impressed by your passion for the link over fuses or breakers. As to your arguements for links due to operational cycles and the over current on start up of certain electricial devices found in our rides....well I not totally convinced. If you read the fine print on such things as fuses and breakers you will notice they are heat activated as are links. They have engineered into them a delay for that higher than normal start up current. Generally 125% of their maximum current capacity for X period of time. As I'm sure you know, anytime you power up a circuit that is not purely resistive you will get an inductive or capacitive kick. Ever notice how the lights dim in some cases when you turn your air compressor or A/C on, Well, that's the kick. Your shop fuses or breakers hold that and keep right on ticking. I not against links. I will have several on my ride when it is finished but I also still believe in fuses and breakers.
