Thanks John. This was also something I considered. But as the power cable to the controller is not very thick, I thought it best to have a lower rated fuse, just in case.

Ah OK that's cool, thank you :giggle: You're right about not needing power to the controller if the opener is dead lol .. in fact that might be better, as we get offline notifications from the controller, so that could indicate there's a problem with either.
