I'm absorbing this info because it will probably be beneficial in a future adventure game as a puzzle solution.

Oh, look at the bougie person using different items for different ratings...

Just jam a penny in there and you'll always be good.

That's exactly what my dad said... may he rest in piece...

[-] [email protected] 47 points 1 year ago

It's a global conspiracy, ever notice how most of the people smart enough to just use pennies just coincidentally die in house fires?

The fuse lobby is out to get us brother!

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that's what my dad said as well!

Of course not, this was during the fire.

You could say it just doesn’t make cents.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That's for screw in fuses.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago

Does 16amp including the cheese or not? Can I still eat the cheese after the "fuse" blown?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Can the cheese be eaten first and use just the wrapping? Asking for a friend.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

i'd like to know too. i'm hungry

Considering the ring tab, this image is at least 40 years old.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Not even kidding, I was looking everywhere to find this exact image today... Have you been listening to my conversations?

Lol for real though, thanks for posting! Saved me from feeling too bad about my subpar searching skills.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Lol, glad I could help 😂.

Can't remember if its was 22 short or long but mythbusters did an episode on dieing to using 22 as a stand in for a glass fuse. Completely plauseable

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

A .22lr fits in some 3AG fuse holders. They do produce an audible alert when they blow. I'm not sure what the current rating is though.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm guessing it's well above 3 amps.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

3AG is just the physical size of the fuse, they usually go up to 20 amps from memory.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Well i figure at least till a Dead short.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Is it 16 amps for the entire wedge of cheese or just the wrapper?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Entire wedge. The cheese is for structural support.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I can't tell what the 250 amp one is. Just random metal?

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Crinkled/rolled metal foil, probably.
