    Default Is the F3-T's Glove box USB fused? Can a dash-cam be connected?

    Just wondering if the F3 T glove box USB is fused. Don't want to fry a cell.
    And can a 5V dash cam be connected to it. I know it won't work with a Garmin.
    Thank you.

    Well, in my case it runs my iPod OK. A typical USB interface should be able to supply 500mA or 0.5 amp. It should be capable of running a typical dashcam with no problems.

    As far as I can see on the F3T wiring diagram, there is no fuse on the USB connector. There is a 15A fuse on the radio which also feeds the USB circuitry so if the radio is working, there should also be power to the USB.

    On my 22 RTL I run a Garmin GPS on that USB with no problems.

    Thanks Rick! I read the Garmin couldn't be powered by that USB.
    Guess they were wrong.
