I run my fans direct from the battery with two 30 amp ciruit breakers(one for each fan).
On startup the fans can requiere a good deal of amps to start turning(depending on fan of course).The circuit breakers are self resetting so there is no need to change any fuses. Wiring high amp peripherals such as electric fans without relays and fuses or breakers is not recommended.A run-of-the-mill toggle switch is just not designed to handle the full amp draw of an electric fan.Use that toggle switch to trigger the relay and let the relay handle the amp draw of the fans.
