Re Dave missing the fuse values on the silkscreen.
I was presented with a rice cooker to fix on Sunday, sigh.
Anyway, upon diagnosing a blown thermal fuse I was left with the problem of reading its near non existent value.
Well I am Dave's age and thought I still had good eyesight, when wearing glasses...
I could make out the last number and a guess at the others. It was not the font size, but the lack ink. The cookers owner was worse, but showed it to his young lad, he read them straight off. I was left thinking how the #@$@ could he read it, but he was right, it was a standard value even Maplin stocked them!
Oh well they say life begins at 40, but I think it is all down hill from there :-)
