If it's taking out a bigger fuse, you got a short on it. Don't out bigger in or you'll fook your TV. Find the fault, fix it and then put the original size back in, obvioiusly not the same one as it's blown!

i have centurion 6" , wired with 3 amp fuse and its fine, bad wiring somewhere?
because the tv's cig lighter plug comes with a 3 amp fuse in them so thats the highest it should take without risking blowing the tv, where have u wired it to ? i wired mine up behind the cig lighter, and is your invertor 150w? might wire mine up aswell rather than using the lighter for it

yeah the plug will be fucke,d at the back but there willl still be current coming through the wires, take your ashtray off and see, prolly too much curent coming from battery blowing the fuse, i wouldnt directly wire it up to battery
