What are the numbers/characters on the base or body of the fuse? That is the
overall size of the fuse (length x diameter)?


Newbie! Fusible resistors used to be quite common. They were rated
by resistance, and wattage.

I, sir, am NOT a newbie. I interpreted the OP's description as a FUSE, which he
stated it to be. Fuse was the first noun that he used in his description of the
part, which I took to be what he was trying to identify.

FYI, I've been in the electronics repair, calibration and engineering world for
about 50 years. Guess that disqualifies me as a newbie.

Michael, I used to like to read your posts, because they were always on topic,
and well written. However, lately, you have become very abusive in your posts,
making usually unwarranted flaming remarks and antagonizing those who are here
asking and replying to questions.

I know you don't give a damn about how I feel about you, but good friends are
hard to come by in most of these news groups. You obviously aren't trying to
make new friends, and it seems that you are quickly alienating those that you
had. I understand that you're disabled, but that doesn't give you the right to
blast everybody that might have a different view than your own.

Goodbye, Michael.
