What value fuse is in the Metrum Octave?
« on: 25 Sep 2012, 01:57 pm »
I was reading an account of someone who swapped out the stock fuse in a Metrum Octave for an AMR fuse that reported very positive results from the move.  I'm not a huge fuse guy, but for $18 I'll take the risk and experiment. 

I assume the power supply case would need to be popped open to see what fuse is needed, but does anyone know the value off hand so I can get them ordered and save the hassle till it comes?

I asked Metrum this very thing and was told the following...

For 230 VAC a 100mA slow blow is used
For 115 VAC a 200mA slow blow is used
Size is 20x5 mm

AMR fuses come in 125mA and 250mA - there is not an exact match for the stock fuse.
