You were given useful advice at the beginning. The fact that you are too
much of a child to realize it was useful advice is not our fault.

If you don't like the advice you get, then go pay someone to give you
the advice you think you are entitled to receive. If you are not paying
for the advice, you should have no expectation of receiving any
particular advice.

So Jeff, let me ask you.
 
If I would replace or jumper the B = RXEF010 resetable fuse the board
would work, meet code, and almost never have to concern myself with
it in the future??
 
Please correct me if I am wrong.
 
Thanks,

Sorry my bad. I forgot to look at the voltage spec.

Hey pony troll! So I had a blast last night. Our table was out, grill was on and family was relaxing. Then I wipped out the tablet and decided to share my little secret. My family was roaring with laughter. I told them this was my little "old lady trolls" in a jar. You guys provide so much entertainment I had to share. Oh and I hope you win in this little pool of yours. Lol. Keep up the good work!

He was away till just earlier and said he tried using a different
input and it worked, but didn't mention if he'd tried going back to
the original ... (like I would have done).
 
For some people, as long as it's working they don't care about
anything else. ;-(

Yeah, that would have been my next step, get some switch cleaner /
Elecrolube in them. ;-)

Yeah, and this one looked pretty simple. ;-(
 
At least I've now got myself a simple PC scope:
 
https://www.hantek.eu/dso-6022be.html
 
... and have found it's also supported under Linux:
 
https://github.com/OpenHantek/openhantek
 
... and found a mod that upgrades it to be AC coupling:
 
https://github.com/OpenHantek/OpenHantek6022/blob/master/docs/HANTEK6022_AC_Modification.pdf
 
The only thing I haven't worked out is if the default is DC after the
mod is applied as I don't think the factory software had the soft
switch and the Windows version of OpenHantek doesn't work on W10 on
the same PC when running Linux Mint (video errors, can't form the
actual scope screen display).

You could do better by not using silly names like, "Joe consumer". Use "average consumer" instead. Good work though.

Regulatory compliance for adequate fire and safety protection requires
a fuse. UL doesn't care if it is user accessible or buried under a
pile of wires. If you want the UL sticker, it must have a fuse of
some sorts.

One must suffer before enlightenment. At least that how all the
fables, parables, anecdotes, and internet explanations are commonly
inscribed.
 
>I am prepared for the best and worst.
 
Are you prepared to pay for the best? (The worst you already have in
the form of an SMT fuse). For a little more $$$, the manufacturer
might supply a PPTC resettable fuse:
<https://www.littelfuse.com/products/polyswitch-resettable-ptcs.aspx>
Nothing to replace when it blows. Just give it time to cool down.
 
Or, the manufacturer could add an SMD size fuse holder:
<https://www.littelfuse.com/~/media/electronics/datasheets/fuses/littelfuse_fuse_154_154t_154l_154tl_datasheet.pdf.pdf>
<https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/fuses/139?s=N4IgjCBcoLQCxVAYygMwIYBsDOBTANCAPZQDa4ArAEwDMAHCALqEAOALlCCAL69A>
However, these are NOT cheap and will not work with a 1206 size fuse.
 
Or, the manufacturer could switch to a much larger cartridge fuse,
which offer a PCB mount fuse holder.
 
>Thank you very much in advance.
 
Y'er welcome.
 
Incidentally, I'm more irritated with non-resettable thermal fuses
used on tranformers and kitchen appliances. These fuses are usually
buried under a layer of difficult to remove Kapton tape.

Entitled? You sound like Jeffy-poos 3rd buddy. I get that these ladies are just toxic in general but I do find it different and very entertaining. In modern chats and forums people are very helpful and even if they don't have an answer they sometimes provide a direction. They certainly don't go on the offensive. Lol. I know, as do people with a brain, that you don't need a schematic to fix something. You don't need a schematic to fix something Jeffy poo. Jeff and his band of witches are just tripping.

Dream on sunshine.
Forums in general are flooded with "Me too" and "Mine

I think we should start another pool. Since we already had a winner in the over/under (10 days) and since that is long since blasted, we should have another over/under (respond by email) to see how long we can keep him twisting. At least once a week, someone should poke the squirrel with a "boo" and see how long he continues to respond. I think this won't be days but many weeks, so we should decide how many weeks for the new over/under pool. We also need to set a window for response, say 5 days. Once the squirrel stops responding for a window of 5 days, a winner will be declared. Anyone with suggestions for duration of the new over/under pool should not respond here but by email for obvious reasons. BTW, I had "under" for the 10 day challenge and need another shot..

My "Boo" is entirely automated, and weekdays only. With your idea in mind, I have stopped it for now.
 
My position towards this accretion is that it is much like the individual I knew who could be 'had' for $0.60/hour - or less. It is not bright enough to automate its responses, so I say... November 10.

B probably indicates 125mA
 
check the size "1206" (3 x 1.5mm)

Yeah, but the average buyer these days demands low prices. Price is probably the defining feature when the Joe Consumer goes shopping.
 
In defense of smd fuses, they don't fail for no reason (except those stupid ceramic ones with the bonded metal caps), so if Joe Consumer doesn't recognize it as a fuse, he can't put a foil gum wrapper around it.
 
Other than a socketed fuse, they are easier to change than any other type of through the hole mounted fuse.

I can't tell you how many of those came in over the years with cranky switches, either the rotating or sliding kind. Yes, by all means have him manipulate them or test those first if it shows up. If it responds, clean them accordingly.
 
The good news is that a stereo amp with one weird channel out of two identical channels is one of the easier things to troubleshoot in the consumer electronics world.
