Title: Brymen BM233 wrong value fuse
Post by: PeterMadach on January 04, 2017, 09:15:28 pm

So I picked up a BM233 from TME in Europe and I was all happy and everything until I opened up this puppy, and I saw that it has different amp rated fuses than it says on the silkscreen. To be exact, instead of a 600mA on the mAmps range it has a 400mA, and instead of the 10A on the Amps range it has a 11A HRC fuse. Should I contact support or just close it and don't bother?

Read your manual.  400mA is the correct fuse for it. 

Also, this exact same question was just asked today at
