Fuses are cheap. I run my Omni VI Plus at about 70 Watts output, and use a 10
Ampere fuse. Occasionally it pops, butI have a good supply of replacements.
Cheaper than any power supply, or breaker. Problem with fuses is the thermal
delay action. One probably couldn’t run any of the 100% duty cycle modes this
way, but I never do.
Just another experience/suggestion.
