otherwise known as "add a circuit" ... http://www.amazon.com/Littelfuse-FHA200BP-ATO-Add-A-Circuit-Kit/dp/B0002BGELQ

I think I've seen them in some of the bigger canadian tire stores. CT website is broken right now so i can't search for you. suggest you print a picture of what you want and take it with you to the stores.

You're trying to be funny right? "Add-a-circuit" is not splicing. Have you considered why no one seems to know what you're talking about?

They are very popular on the U.S. Forums, and I know that add a circuit is not splicing.

I got a radio shack part number, and the source was able to cross reference and have ordered some.


add a circuit would work perfectly, but they are 15$ and i need to tap 3 sources. I dont want to spend $45 on 3 of those things.

I just got a 5 pack for 6 bucks.

I'm pretty sure Kz9 meant running an entirely new fused line (eg. from the battery).

But yeah those add-a-circuits are stupid expensive for what they are.

Could you please pass on the part number?

Many thanks!:yes:
