Re: [DIYbio] Help Fix an Invitrogen Blue Light Transilluminator

Thanks for your help everyone!  I measured the current across the fuse while running at full brightness as 210mA.  I also noticed that next to the fuse was a spot to solder in a cartridge fuse holder and bypass the surface mount fuse.  I got a cartridge holder from Digikey (part# F6094-ND) as well as a 400mA fuse.  Soldered it in and removed the old surface mount fuse.

"F1" is where the old fuse was.

Everything works great now.
