a thought on fuse holders, the type that have the newer auto motive fuses,
with the blade type connections, are easy to find, cheap and they can
usually just crimp on.
You can get the heavy duty rubberized housing that keeps water and
sault/dirt out as well...i feel that barrel fuses are going the way of the
doe-doe and that blade fuses are smaller, easier to find and all around
better.
Some say they are harder to tell weather there is a blown fuse in them, but
since most of us arent looking at them anyway, that isn't an issue.
