fuse going to pack from charger
Where can i find the fuse that connects from the charger recepticle to the battery pack? Mine has some corrosion and just looks old. Everything else is new so i might as well change it. Its a 48v txt series with a DPI charger. What size fuse is needed?

FWIW: A fuse has to have resistance to function and any resistance in the charge current path after the battery voltage is sensed by the charger, lowers the voltage the battery is actually charge to and while I neither recommend nor endorse eliminating it, I believe I forgot to install it the last time I cleaned my battery cables. |

Kirchhoff's second law (The algebraic sum of the products of the resistances of the conductors and the currents in them in a closed loop is equal to the total emf available in that loop.) applies to the cables, connections and components in the motor drive circuit as well. |

Re: fuse going to pack from charger
I understood current is the same throughout the loop, I just never considered the fact that a fuse imposes resistance.
