MY16 VFII SSV Redline Manual
I'm running a dash cam, and 2 radio's from it.
And as stockies said from memory its a 10amp fuse.
Standard uhf radio draws 2 Amps max, dash cams 0.5 - 2 Amps, so you will be ok.
You got it easy going with an on-glass antenna, a real pain to go with an external wired antenna.
Thanks CalaisNQ, yeah I don't need super long range so I think a glass mount aerial is gonna suit me fine

My UHF draws more than that... but then again its a commercial unit which I have the "brains" mounted in the boot, through a relay switched by a RAP fuse in the boot.

Also an external antenna is easy from the boot. I have a boot mounted one, very easy to slip into the cargo area and if you need to run it to the front it's dead easy.

Well I don't have a boot, but this is behind the passenger seat.

Ok, Pulled the documentation we have at work for the VF commodore. Only have the series 1 stuff, but it shows that the ignition in the DOC plug is 10amps (RAP ACCY) fuse circuit and the 12volt constant is part of the ECU fuse circuit (10-amp ECM BATT)
For those requiring a switched ignition supply in the boot - try the EMER/VEH/ACCY) fuse location.

Thankyou. When the storm passes il have a look at the ecm batt fuse again as that would be the one I stuffed up.
