Fuses - Maplin?

[James]

Wow this is going to be a long journey, I need the following fuses for a Williams system 6 machine, I assume Maplin would stock them?


F1 - Display Fuse, 1/4 amp slo-blo
F2 - Solenoid Fuse, 2 1/2 amp slo-blo. Probably the most common fuse to blow, you should keep a good stock of these.
F3 - Lamp Fuse, 8amp (not slo-blo!)
F4 - Flipper Fuse, either a 10amp or 15amp slo-blo. If your game has 2 flippers, then use a 10amp, 3 or more then use a 15amp.
F5 - Logic Supply Fuse, 4amp (also not slo-blo!)


On the Fuse Card (left to right):

6F1 - General Illumination Fuse, 20amp
6F2 and 6F3 - Logic Supply main fuses, 4amp slo-blo

If not order them from Pinball heaven or Pinball mania. I have a slack handful of most fuse values in stock. Just in case.

Thanks gents, nowhere “in town” - usual big chains, that would stock such items? I think I’m going to need to order from a specialist for rubbers and NOVUS but would be nice to make a start today

try finding someone who repairs old style electronics eg tv amplifier or dj equipment repairer. guys like that will be holding a good stock of various fuses but most of these one man bands probably have sundays off.

Ahh fair point - best to wait then.

Out of usual stockists can anyone’s recommend the better on price and delivery speed (I want it all apparently!)

 

[AlanJ]

rs components deliver fast. if in stock i’ve often received overnight. and free delivery even on sub £10 orders.

Maplin *may* stock some of them - but its very hit and miss - in an emergency I have pegged it into Brighton branch and got pinball fuses.

Cheaper to order/stock up online

I have got a few fuses from my local maplin in an emergency, they don't stock all ratings but they had a few. They were expensive though, I think it was about the cost of a box of fuses from pinball mania for one fuse or there abouts.

Remember it's 32mm fuses you will be after not the 20mm (lmtc's ones look like 20mm)
