Digikey sells 5-pack of 440mA and 11A for US$25.30 and US$46.50 respectively.

2) When you're doing repeated work. This will be a point of mistakes.

Not all Fluke meters beep at you. I am that kind of idiot that do this from time to time - thus this is one of the reasons why I now prefer meters that at least beep - otherwise I yank the fuse out of them.

I am so happy to know Digikey sells 440mA fluke fuse for 9USD only. However 1minutes later, I figured out it's for US market only.
Digikey Australia sells the same thing for 119AUD.
What a rip off.>:( >:( >:(
Whales:
I can't see any 440mA fuses on Digikey, can you share a link?
It's probably worth going for a similar fuse (+/-20% or so from the 440mA original is probably fine) from a good brand and similar time rating.
J-R:
Come on guys, think before you post! I typed "440ma fuse" into the DigiKey search box, hit Enter, then clicked the first Top Result and got all the links being discussed.
Double whammy, the two DigiKey links in rsjsouza previous post still work!
But to answer the question, the 119AUD listing states Bulk Package and if you scroll down it's for quantity 10.

Also try RS and Element14. Usually one or the other will have them at a lower price.
