Yes, I spliced into my car stereo. It's pretty easy as long as you know which one is the hot wire.

Yes it is an "active" filter and as such requires a 12vdc connection. It cones with a toggle switch per wired inline on the "hot" wire

No, it doesn't has a "Fuse", and I wouldn't recommend buying this product! Much better products out there for less! Read the 1-Star reviews!!

It needs to be wired up. It is designed to be connected directly to the battery but ypu could wire a cigarette lighter adapter to it.

None, we just had the cord extension plug in to the wall electrical outlet. If you are asking, if on the package, fuse is included, none!

No. I recommend you only hook it directly to the battery as it draws too much current to connect through the cigarette lighter and will likely blow fuses in your vehicle.

No battery might be an advantage with regarding auto-connecting and power on/off with car start. Might not be bad.

I believe that's the case. However, I've not tested it with mine. I have 2 of them in 2 different cars and both have been hard wired to the fuse box with their own dedicated fuses. I've left my truck in the parking lot with everything enabled and haven't even come close to running down the battery.

It would matter what fuse you hook it up if it would stay on with the car off. Mine is hook up to the same circut as the cigarette lighter. It uses so little power it would take week for it would take weeks to kill the battery.

no, it needs to be wired directly to the battery with a 30 amp inline fuse fitted. the normal wiring used for a cigarette lighter is too light in gauge to run this unit

You still need to run a ground. This product just taps into an existing hot (positive +) fuse location on your fuse block. Your red positive hot wire will connect to this product.

No, but only a short pieces needed, depending on where located. Also, instructions ask for a fuse to be used.

yes it does work, but you'd have to unplug it everytime you got out of the car or your battery would run dead. it is better to just run the wires to your fuse box using an add-a-circuit.

If you're talking about an automobile I'm sure you could directly connect to the fuse box and give it his own fuse if you want to spend that much time running wire. As far as running it inside of the house you still need a power supply purchase from them

yes it does require wiring to a power source, block is just that a block with no wires.

No...but it was easy to get a fuse adapter from the auto store...it came with a wire...just splice and tape up...all nice and tucked away in your fuse box.

yes it is connected to the car battery or fuse panel in order to provide lighting in the display and power

Connects directly to battery Positiove and negatiove posts..........I suggest using a heavy duty fuse which is flat and has a clear fuse box.also thru amazon. Easy install. It does coem with cables.
