Unable to find 15A or 20A "switch" fuse

Anyone know where I can find a "Switch" fuse either 15A or 20A fuse? I check and all 15A/20A fuse are all constant power. I check under the hood fuse #19 Audio 20A and it also constant power. I tested when engine Off after 5-10min. I even tested next day when car parked over night. All show constant power. I'm looking for those fuse to hardwired Cellink B 2nd Gen battery for parking mode dashcam.

See signature for my car. Thanks

15A switched power in a car is a pretty big circuit. The unit only needs 7A if you are hard wiring it. I'd bet the unit has an internal fuse anyway and if you hooked it up to a 15 or 20 amp circuit you might end up blowing the internal fuse.

"...The 5A toggle is used if you are connecting your Cellink B to your male cigarette as it is specifically used for that purpose. The 7A toggle is specifically used for hard wiring the system to car and allows for faster charging. "

I found one empty fuse slot (driver side) that is a switch. Will be using that slot for cellink battery B 2nd Gen and added 15A fuse to "tap a fuse"
