New EEVblog BM786 Multimeter
AVGresponding:
It's worth mentioning that they are a standard size (10mm x 38mm) but odd value 11A and (400?)mA. You've a good chance of finding 10A ones at an electrical factors quite cheaply, though the mA ones are likely to still be a bit pricey but you should find them easily available from Mouser or Digikey or whatever your local electronics supplier is.
10A is probably fine as a replacement; if you're measuring stuff of that magnitude you should probably be using a clamp anyway.

Some idiot YT expert blabbing on about safety with while showing off his Fluke with some fuse from the local hardware store installed. :palm:
Monkeh:
That's an expensive fuse, too.

Looks like a Cooper-Bussmann LP-CC, which is a very good, very safe fuse, but completely wrong for the application...

If you are gonna use a non-Fluke one, at least pick one with the correct voltage ratings. :palm:
Algoma:
The fact that the fuse is replaced alone indicates a potential past mistake already occurred (Or was tested to fault on purpose for review).
Certainly something to check for your safety when acquiring a second hand meter, that a correct Fuse is in place.
