I have a retrosound ZUMA radio in my 53 3100 and i am putting in a battery disconnect, how can I keep my presets in the radio. I will have it disconnected for some time. Some one suggested that a buy a computer saver from FLAPS but they are only go for about a day maybe two. I thought I could put a fused by pass from the battery to ground. The radio as two power wires one consent ON and one key ON. With the key OFF it only draws 3.5 Mill amps and I think that's for the presets. What size fuse do I need and will it work? I am thinking 2.5 or 5 amp.
