Replacement main fuse holder

[emichon]

I have an S1 Vivaldi 2, and I need to replace the main fuse holder. Has anyone replaced these, and would have a suggestion for a better quality one that I could use?

A bit of an old post. BUT.
Yes. My S1V2 fuse holder melted. There was no fixing it. I put an automotive fuse holder in, that has 2 heavy gauge(probably 10 gauge) wires and rubber fuse holder with cap, and wired that in. I can just tuck it under the machine and never have to screw around with that cheap fuse holder. And yes i use an automotive fuse with the 2 prongs, not a glass old school fuse.

Thanks zedex. That's actually not a bad idea. I may try that out. I did end up replacing the fuse holder with the same cheap type that came with the machine. I don't expect it'll last very long.

You wouldn't happen to have taken some pictures of your setup ?

No i didnt. But its basically exactly this except maybe heavier gauge wire.

Seems like it worked this time.
