Hey guys I'm looking to build a 2 cell lipo mod.
I'm planing on using a IRLB3034 mosfet
15K OHM 1/4W resistor and two 15 amp fuses
I haven't done anything with electronics in a while and I just want to make sure that I am using the right resistor
what are you modding, idiot?
what are the two parts top-left, a switch and a pot?
parallel fuses dont add like you would expect. better to use a single 30 car fuse.

top left is my crap drawing of a vandal switch then the one below is the master on off.
Why would a single 30 be better then two parallel fuses?
no idea what a vandal switch is. i'm familiar with anti-vandal switches, made so little shit kids wont break them.
the reason 2 fuses are bad are coz one will always have a slightly power resistance, and so it will take most of the current, thus burning out, then the second takes all the current, then burns out. the current doesnt divide 50/50. one way to sorta fix that is to use one fuse per battery.
as for your resistor, 15K is fine, so is 1.5K or 150K. it's in no way critical.
meant 'lower', not 'power'
