mini Add-a-circuit (fuse tapper)

**gj07fjc** · 04-02-2007, 11:13 PM

Hi guys.
Following some of the threads (ie. Thanks Matt,PIAA lights installed) on the forum, seems like this little gadget is quite handy. and since I couldnt find any in Calgary, I've ordered some online and should be here in a week or so.

I've ordered a few extra's (handful), so, if anyone local (Calgary, Edmonton?) need a couple, PM me, you can have it for the same cost i pay. not sure what it is yet, but i would imagine around 13-15$/CDN ea. (cost+shipping+duties/quantity). The actual cost is $ 9.49/ea US.
I've seen some cheaper elsewhere, but shipping charges was ridiculous!!!

I am not to make money on this, just wanna break even and help out if i can.
and if you DO know a place in Calgary/Edmonton that has it, please post location(s).

Thanks!
Gerry

This is where i ordered from.

Canadian Tire has them here in Vancouver, likely in Calgary too!

I've had trouble finding them in Toronto too, the guys at my Can Tire are useless and can't tell the difference between a mini fuse and a snow tire...then again I didn't know much when I was 14 either. I've been thinking of ordering some too.

Was thinking of getting these:
The Access

anyone try them?

i havent seen any in CT here. I've checked The Source (Radio Shack), and man, for an electronic gadget store, they have no idea what it is!

I don't know about Canada, but I found one at Advanced Auto yesterday. They keep them instock now.

I can sympathize with you on sales people, asking if they had one he led me to an in line fuse.... then offered that I should wire it in to the cigarette thing...

Anyone know if this could be used to hardwire a gps?? If so I might be picking one up from you if you're gonna be in Calgary this weekend.

not sure about the GPS. if you are asking me, i dont have them yet. just ordered them Monday morning (yesterday). probably be a week or so before getting them in. I'll post up when i receive them.

Judging by that other thread it doesn't look like thats what I need. I'm looking for something that I can plug into the interior power so that I don't have to run my GPS off the cigarette lighter. I think I know what I need to do for this though.

so, these finally came in today!
i got 5 extra's if anyone is looking. cost = 13.00/ea (actually 13.06)

i saw them at Canadian Tire (up in Slave Lake) for $15.69/ea (but came with fuses).
the Wirthco ones i have is just the fuse tap as seen in picture on my first post.
