    Default Looking for a fuse...

    I recently was given a couple of scanners, and one won't power on. I tracked down the problem to a fuse on the circuit board, but it seems to be a hard item to find.

    I'm looking for a 1A 250V pigtail fuse. It's very small, just under 1/2" long. It looks like this,



    except it's shorter than the one in the picture.

    Does anyone know where I could find one of these in town or online? Radio Shack doesn't carry anything that small. The only place I've found online that sells them only does so in minimum quantities of 500.

    B&E or MRO should have something like that. but I am not sure if B&E does retail, I've only been there with a company.
    I usually go to MRO, they're very reasonably priced, and usually friendly

    Digikey is very good, only issue is they aren't local. Ordered from them several times, and they have always been prompt, and they have damn-near everything!
