Car Thing Fuse Tap

Car Thing Fuse Tap

Hey all! Had a quick general question here,

 

Has anyone bothered to tap in the USB wire it comes with into your fuse? So it powers on when you power on your car? 

 

I was thinking of purchasing a longer wire for it, tapping into a fuse, therefore hiding the wire and making it have a neater appearance, 

 

Would anyone know what fuse I'd be tapping into? 15 or higher?

Hello, 

I did just this with my 2010 Honda Accord LX, I have an Echo Auto and bought this

to power it from the fuse box, I used the second usb plug for a phone holder/charger. I took out the phone charger and replaced it with the CarThing. Works great!
