Am I right in thinking the front screen draws 63 amp? Club Exped trailer

The fuse for the heated front screen is only 30amp so unlikely 2008 HSE Stornoway Grey

Is that per side as I seem to remember it’s fed from two fuses? Club Exped trailer

I would guess at about 15A per side.

But you could swap the fuse for a loop of wire and stick a current clamp around it to find out?

Why do you ask?

I just remember in the mists of time when I had a D3 I did the webasto gsm mod so I could ring the car to fire up the FBH. The diaper had a second output and I looked into it operating the heated front screen. I had a yellow top in the second battery slot and I remember being concerned it wouldn’t be big enough to last the duration of the heated screen cycle.
I was just talking to a mate last night about it as he was thinking of doing the same.
