Hi Dan,

We've had this discussion in the past, and there seems to be a
difference in opinion as to what type of fuse to use. In mine (I'm UK
based) the fuses are marked 'T100mA', which makes them 'time lag'
(or 'slo-blo') fuses. The point of them being time-lag is to ensure
that they don't blow at the moment of turn on, when an inevitable
surge in current occurs. If the replacements you used were not 'T'
types, then this may be why they blew immediately. On the other hand,
you may of course actually have a problem somewhere with something
drawing too much current! However, other list members have suggested
using fast blow types as an added precaution. Probably best to
contact your local distributor; but come to think about it, perhaps
if Dieter is listening in, he can put us straight once and for all !
