WTB: Need two fuses now: 5kV 0.7A D-6mm L-40mm in Auckland - one for son's, one for mom's microwave

 

eBay - $2 per 5 or 10 but waiting time....

 

tradetech are crazy expensive $20 per one!

 

Trademe are making 500% profit by selling two for $19.

:-) usually I get devices when they are already dead ... and you know that I don't have iPhone (never had one), don't have Android phone (never had one), still using  10 year old phone on the non-existent prepay plan you can no longer get :-)

 

You just reminded me one fax from one of our business customers I saw 10 years ago, quote: " urgently need replacement phone, dropped mine into the toilet, tried to dry in the microwave owen, it is no longer working..."
