The full rundown

A 5A auto reset circuit breaker for low-current 12V and 24V circuits. It trips on overload, then restores power on its own once it cools, so there are no fuses to replace.

Why it works

  • Thermal auto-reset protection: Automatically resets after overload, no fuse replacement needed.
  • 5 amp rating: Ideal for low-current accessory and control circuits.
  • Suitable for 12V-24V systems: Common automotive and marine voltages.
  • Red vinyl protective cover: Reduces corrosion and helps prevent accidental shorts.
  • Trip-free cycling design: Continues to protect even during repeated fault conditions.
  • Compact, sealed construction: Suitable for harsh environments.

What's in the box

  • 1 x auto reset 5 amp circuit breaker
  • 2 x lock nuts
  • Red vinyl terminal cover

How it works

This breaker continuously monitors current flow and trips when the circuit exceeds 5 amps. Once the overload or short condition is removed, the breaker automatically resets, restoring power without manual intervention.

The unipolar, free-cycle trip design ensures consistent protection even during repeated faults, making it well suited to mobile and vibration-prone installations.

What it suits

  • 12V and 24V DC systems
  • Automotive and 4WD accessories
  • Marine and RV installations
  • Battery chargers and jump starters
  • Trolling motors and electric anchors
  • Winches, pressure washers, and auxiliary circuits

What owners say

From the Treklo crew

G'day, we're Treklo

We're a handful of blokes in Geelong who spend our weekends in utes, vans and campers. We got sick of 12V gear that gave up a few trips in, so we started making our own and running it in our own rigs first.

Not sure what you need? Flick us an email and one of us will sort you out. No sales script, just straight answers.

  • We run it ourselves

    Every bit of gear goes in our own rigs before it goes on the site.

  • Out the door today

    Order by 3pm AEST and it leaves Geelong the same day.

  • Sorted here if it plays up
