Just to make sure I understand you....

Let's say my accessory is 10 A, and the cigarette lighter is 15A. Does that mean I should keep the 15A fuse in the lower slot and put a 10A in the upper slot of the circuit extender? I thought the fuses were connected in parallel and that the fuse amperages would add up...? No...?
