Is there a solid fuse-like item that I can use in place of a fuse, to bypass it?
Hi All,
instead of using a "gourmet" fuse in certain situations, I want to bypass the fuse entirely with a solid piece of metal. I also want to avoid soldering-in a piece of wire in the fuse’s place.
Are there solid pieces of silver or copper, the same size as a fuse, that i can swap into a fuse holder?

30+ years ago: I tried some of the following*, in my first pair of Magnepans, to see if I could discern an improvement, before simply bypassing the fuse holder/attenuator circuit entirely (moved & resoldered one wire). I'd never consider defeating the protection afforded any of my other components' circuitry. Especially: their high-dollar/unobtainium power transformers.

I have an idea, replace the transistors with solid copper bars too! In the event of a short you have spontaneously very very high currents which can explosively vaporize metals. This type of thinking is madness. Fuses are life safety and property safety devices which should not be compromised. Ever. |
