I'll have to look for a power supply around here with 10 amp , I've got 13.6 VDC 4 amp 'bench' regulated supply and the fuse block thing on the DVD has 2 fuses in it, both 2 amp so I thought i was ok. However the blue wire is not fused. I was NOT given the receiver, control unit , monitor and god-knows -what- else -goes -with -this thing that could potentially draw 10 amps.
