This is what you want: https://www.solar-electric.com/midnite-solar-mnepv-10-amps-circuit-breaker.html $11.35 and you can buy just one. Din rail mount. Midnite-solar has a full range of these in many different amperage ratings. But until you get one, go to an auto parts store and buy an inline fuse holder with a 10 amp fuse to tide you over.

It looks like the R-Series breakers are only for AC, though? On the AC side, I'm thinking of this one: http://www.alliedelec.com/altech-corp-2du25r/70075748/ Do you have any suggestions for a single-pol 10A DC breaker that I can use for the BATT side? I'm not finding anything in Altech's lineup that matches these specs.

I thought my breakers were rated for much more current, but it looks like they are only rated for 5A (both AC [1] and BATT [2]). In short - I need a breaker that can handle more current, correct? I have these breakers at a ton of sites.. can't believe I just noticed they were only rated for 5A. :( In the meantime, I may need to use an external charger to get these batteries charged back up. [1] http://www.alliedelec.com/altech-corp-2c5um/70076204/ Other than making sure you have the right size breaker for running load, that's a C curve breaker. Ideally for things with high inrush like power supplies and transformers you should prefer a D curve, which have a higher 100ms trip point at 20xRC. The C curve is 10xRC at 100ms.
