The reasons for the fuse blowing that I stated came from someone at Rad. What you say makes a lot of sense when I think about it. Our battery was only 3 weeks old when the fuse went and we didn't do anything that would have caused it to go. So a bad batch of fuses may be it. I didn't save it, unfortunately. It was marked as 10amp but it didn't look like it was the same quality as the one I replaced it with. It looked flimsy. Like the plastic wasn't as robust. Rad did send a new battery under warranty but I thought I would attempt the fix and it worked out well. No problems with the repair.
