Oh, whoops. Looks like I misunderstood where the fuse was. Hadn't paid proper attention to the bulge in the red cable and only noticed the device in her hand.
No, that was just a switch she was holding.
By the way, welcome to the forum!

Reminds me of the Lucas Electric Guide for Fuse Replacement: https://mgb1967.com/lucas-guide-to-fuse-replacement/lucas-fuse-replacement-chart/If you'd just looked around, you would probably have found you had spare class T fuses already.

Please be easy on this adventurous individual. This can happen to anybody.Reminds me of the Lucas Electric Guide for Fuse Replacement: https://mgb1967.com/lucas-guide-to-fuse-replacement/lucas-fuse-replacement-chart/
I've actually really enjoyed her videos, and learned a lot from them. Some things I agree with, others less so, but it's been excellent to see someone actually working with and experimenting with the kit that I will soon be playing with.Please be easy on this adventurous individual. This can happen to anybody.
Learning curves are more common for we who learn the hard way. Thanks

and she has good taste in scotch.
She looks a little Irish. After a few of those youll get a black eye, then the cops come...She can handle it, or she wouldn't have left it in the video. Pretty sure she has a good sense of humor as well.
Agreed!
I have one of those I put inline on a charger cable... Posts/bolts are stupid long Cut the bolts on back as short as possible, used the enclosure it came with, wrapped the whole thing with tape anyway. The bolts are copper.The incident in the video of the original post got me to thinking about my Blue Sea switch. Yep, the 3/8" studs on the back are exposed. Even a piece of electrical tape over the studs would be better than nothing. A cap would be nice, but it might stick out too far, which would make the switch difficult to mount.
Seriously if its not high voltage just keep a few fire extinguishers handy, be ready to run and have your phone in your pocket to call 911. Doesnt hurt to keep welding gloves nearby either.I've just viewed some of her newer videos --looks like she hasn't learned a thing about building batteries safely -- Studs and Terminals all exposed under a workbench full of metal tools --makes me cringe just looking at that -- not to mention always having some kind of drink right there ready to be knocked over -- nothing like a little Scotch to cloud the mind when fooling with 20000 + amps of battery -- JMTC
when I was a apprentice as a electrician - it was drilled into me - never to wear a ring to work.A little Tape over the terminals goes a long way --- I learned my lesson with my wedding band
