Hardwired Radar Detector - Any option other than fuse 8?

I've had my RD hardwired to fuse 8 and the fuse will occasionally blow when I charge my phone while the RD is on. Is there another fuse I can use that'll turn on and off with the car?

There are several ununsed fuse connections available in the fuse box. I used one of them.
