well, i have 5 gauges that i am installing into my teg and was wondering a few things. they are greddy gauges, and i was wondering if it will really create any resistance that will affect my accessories if i tap multiple times into the 12v source on the cig lighter. i have wired in my boost gauge and my boost controllor to the cig lighter, but i dont want to create any extra resistance to the source by tapping into them again.

i have greddy gauges and am using the supplied snap splice pieces. should i go into the fuse box for the red and white lines for my remaining gauges and splice off of that wire? then should i put an inline fuse in off of each wire? thinking a 10-20amp would work. any help would be appreciated.

First off, multiple taps on a voltage source will increase current draw, not resistance. Fuses are sized according to the amps drawn by the load and the wire size in that circuit. Add up the load for all the stuff you have and want to add to that line. Is the fuse protecting that line larger than what you add up? If so, you're probably OK unless you actually use the cigarette lighter element.
