cool!! word of advice, get a 5 pack. the reason? something made it blow. if you replace it and it blows again, then the real troubleshooting begins, for example, starting with the tubes, if they short or red plate, it can blow the fuse... let's hope it just randomly blew Smiley

Here's a question:  The layout on Nik's site calls for a 1A 250V slo-blo.  The fuse I took out is a 500mA.  Anybody know what I should be using?  Undecided (Fortunately, I just bought some of both.)

Tim,

It should be a 1 amp FAST blow fuse. The layout has this wrong, but the manual corrects it. Slow blow for the mains 3 amp with 120 v, 2 amp with 240 v; and 1 amp FAST blow for HT.

Hi guys,

Picked up some 1A fast acting fuses, and replaced the old 500 mA fuse. Everything is working great! Thanks everyone for your help!

Get a few. There might be an underlying reason for it having blown, then it'll be back to troubleshooting.

I agree, although, having a 500ma fuse in a spot rated for 1A maybe the cause... hopefully.
