Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please

I recently began experimenting with slugs in place of fuses on most of my components and the results have been VERY rewarding. I'll write up a full review eventually but am awaiting possible different metal slugs in the near future.  I started with copper and the improvement from stock fuses to the copper slugs was quite noticeable but, honestly, nothing compared to the upgrade from copper to solid silver slugs from Golden State Silver and, shockingly, titanium slugs.  Can anyone comment on their DIRECT experience(s) with slugs other than copper?   I'm looking into tungsten and possibly molybdenum presently.  I'd love to try platinum or palladium but that's probably beyond my reach.  AND PLEASE, THERE'S NO NEED TO COMMENT ON HOW FOOLISH IT IS TO BYPASS THE FUSE WITH SLUGS-----WE ALREADY KNOW---YOU'VE TOLD US EXHAUSTIVELY.

Good Morning

Quick adder here in that my first shipment of what I think it "best to date" Sluggos will arrive next week

Tellurium Copper with Rhodium Plating is now done and on the way.

Not terribly expensive and delivering on all aspects I’m looking for

Feel free to e-mail me - might be a day or so - but I promise a reply

Good Morning

I DO HAVE higher level Piggies in the works - but frankly in my system what I have now (Piggy) seems to work really well.                 

New Sluggo - just awesome IMHO...

Protection is important as a vendor - but I know others are not worrying about this -

Cool in any event 

 

Thanks

Good Morning 

Our new Tellurium Copper with Rhodium Plating are clearing customs. 

These are $199 for 5 x 20mm 

The 6 x 32mm are $299

I have High Purity Copper at $10 dollars each - same for High Purity Brass 

With BF Deals we sent our High Purity Copper with Gold Immersion - these are normally 25 dollars each 

Any Sluggo order has a freight charge of 8 dollars. 

Questions - 

Many thanks

Really a lot of people to thank here :)

We have a good Black Friday deal which I made mention of elsewhere (not allowed here which I fully endorse)

The new High Purity Copper with Gold Immersion seems to be coming out on top in most use cases. 

Rhodium in the mix for next year as is a Graphene Treatment variant. We are hard at it to get the best out of every system

Thanks - Mark
