Default Too many things hooked up to a fuse?

I have my under dash led's hooked up to my interior lighting fuse. I just have 2, 9 inch led strips.

I'm adding 2 more strips to my back seats hopefully tomorrow, and would like to hook them up to the same switch as my front led's.

But I was wondering, if I added 2 more strips, would it pop my fuse? or should it be okay?

Thanks!

Andrew

LED's dont draw much power but if you have an issue blowing fuses and you have them on a switch anyway why dont you run power straight to your constant at the ignition switch or right to your battery. if you want them to come on with your interior lights use a relay.

I wanted a relay but couldn't find it, I made a post here but no response.

I'll mess with it tomorrow when I install the lights. I figured it wouldn't bother it cause of the led power usage, but i just wanted to make sure
