Hi folks,Anyone know of a source for Fluke DMM fuses that aren't quite so grossly overpriced?Actually it isn't the price of the fuse($8-$12) that bothers me so much as the $8-$10 shipping they have the *alls to ask for.I finally blew my first fuse in my fluke 179(the 11A,of course).The only place I could find that charges a reasonable price for shipping was one seller on E-Pay,but unfortunately I don't use Paypal or credit cards at all for that matter.Any suggestions.Thanx much.

Got any suplus electronics places around you?
Mine near me in van nuys has all kinds of fuses.
I get a little baggy of what I need when i am there.
Swap meets can be good too.

Mike, sorry I can't help, but I will be interested to learn what you come up with.

I have a Fluke 179, and I've make every hook-up mistake imaginable, but never have had a problem. What caused your fuse to blow?

Hi Mike,
You might look for a local retailer of Fluke products in you area using their locator:
http://us.fluke.com/usen/wtb/default.htm
You might also try Sears, since the do sell some Fluke products.

Mike,
I went directly to Fluke's web site, and paid what I consider a reasonble price (shipping included) for a package of 5 exact replacements, unavailable locally. After placing the probes of my 388B across an un-rectified 80 input on a Majestic 90B the fuse failed. The fine print read 750VAC max. Saved my meter, a cheap education, but a delay in progress.
