Hi David,
   This is frequently asked. You really need to use that circuit
breaker if you don't use the TT power supply and it's a must if 
you run mobile. I have tried to make a special order to AirPax
but the cost was getting upwards of $25.00 each. Then someone
here on the reflector told the group about PoCo Sales. I just got
my order from them last week. I bought four breakers, two 10A for
the Argosy II and two 20A for the Corsair II. These should be the
instant trip but the fast is acceptable. Since they are special
order it takes about two months to get them. Now for the shocker
the cost is $8.65 each. I don't know how they can sell them so
cheaply when I tried to buy 50 they were $25.00 +.
For the Argosy you want the T11-0-10.0A-01-11A-V and for the
Corsair II you want the T11-0-20.0A-01-11A-V.
The address of Poco is:
PoCo Sales
8925 Fullbright Ave.
Chatsworth, CA 91311
(818)700-8727
