Hey everyone and Peter!

Peter, I sent you an email with a couple of questions, but right when it was sending my phones email application force quit and I am not sure of it sent properly and for some reason I have to wait 48 hours till I can sign back in to my email :/

Anyway, one of my questions in the email was what fuses do I order from MOUSER for the tube fault? I know they are the 0.25a ceramic, but what size (5mmx20mm?), fast acting or slow blow and does the voltage matter? I am in the US so amp is at 120v

Thanks for the help!

Haha! Thanks! I have that PDF downloaded and didn't realize it (until now) tells you the tube type at the top and not in the second page.

What about voltage rating of the tube fault fuses?

Voltage rating comes up when I want filter the results
 
Hmmmm.... Mouser only seems to have fast action and not slow blow for the. 25A 250v fuses :/

Oh! So 5.2mm D is ok? I thought it had to be exactly 5mm D

Haha! Thanks so much for all the help :)

There is a small spring in the fuse housing. I don't think .2mm will hurt.
They have the Ceramic as well. No glass bits left in the holder.
 
the 5x20mm slow blow 250mA fuses is what you need for the VH4. They are very hard to find in the US as ceramic. You might get lucky on ebay. Otherwise just use glass. I know glass can break, but it rarely happens. You might have no other option.

Click the link to Mouser. Ceramic are in stock, third one down.
