That's shocking! 3:30 😀

Make sure your new fuses are up to the job. ruclips.net/video/B90_SNNbcoU/видео.html

I always say pull and test the fuse cause they can blow deep in the side.

[@michaelkeith1366]

Thanks for the reminder. And some of the fuses are hot when the game is off but still plugged into the wall. Ouch!

[@SevensPinballorama]

I've found those fuses many times by mistake. LOL

[@MRNBricks]

I feel like the important question is why did it blow.

[@SevensPinballorama]

I lose a few fuses a year for no apparent reason. Perhaps age? Maybe they're the original fuses? Vibration maybe? Don't know. I replace them and they don't blow again.
If they do blow again, then I dig deeper.
With this fuse, I replaced it and it is still chugging along. Hasn't blown again.

SEVEN"S PINBALLORAMA, Why do pinball games use a combination of Slow Blow and Fast Blow Fuses?

[@SevensPinballorama]

Safety for the circuit they're running. Some times you want things to pop right away. Other things can handle a little power fluctuation.

[@waynegram8907]

@@SevensPinballorama But how do you know if a circuit can handle power fluctuations which would take a Slow blow? The Fast Blow circuits can't handle power fluctuations for what reasons?

[@waynegram8907]

@@SevensPinballorama It doesn't say in the pinball game service manuals what "determines a circuit" to use a slow blow or fast blow fuse, which the designers choose to use a slow blow compared to using a fast blow or vise versa for reasons

[@SevensPinballorama]

Sorry. I misunderstood. I thought you meant in general why use one over the other.
For replacing the fuse in a game, the manual should tell you if it's slow or fast blow.
