EGT meter fuse?

Hello all and Happy New Year!
I have just fitted a Stage 6 EGT to my Series 2.
Do I need to put an in-line fuse on? If so will 3 amp be ok as I already have some in the shed?
and
On the Varitronic ignition, am I right in thinking that the spare connector on the regulator is to charge a battery?
Many thanks!

Is this what you have?

If it is then as long as there is a fuse some where between the battery and the rest of the system I'd think it would be fine.
yes, one of the connectors on the regulator is for DC out. I don't think it's very much, only good for trickle charging a battery.

Thanks Grumpy225, I have fitted it now and put a 3 amp fuse between the battery and the display. Hopefully the trickle charge will be enough to keep the battery topped up
