    Martin, I’m not trying to change your opinion but simply you have not tried an aftermarket fuse therefore your opinion is flawed. If you had tried one and were shouting the benefits from the highest...

    What’s cheap is cheap, no such thing as a free lunch. Lesson learnt over nearly 72 years. Try for a s/h SBooster, really good linear power supply.
