[TenTec] Airpax

[Greg S]

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.

Or, what is the part number and source to buy on the market?  I've tried several suppliers, and found a 20 Amp, but no 18 Amp.  I tried to search the groups files, but just haven't figured out the search method.
