Hi Steve:

I previously wrote

  To join the two wires, I use a home=made butt-joint connector
  fashioned from a 3/4" length of brass (hobby) tubing purchased
  at my nearby hardware store. I Stripped the ends of the two
  wires to 3/8" each, bought a length of hobby brass tubing which
  would just barely accept #10 wire,

Aaaayyy!  Should have typed #8 wire, not #10, continuing...

  slipped one wire into the tubing and soldered it into place,
  filling the empty 3/8" of the tubing about 1/3 full of solder as
  well. Then I inserted the other wire, reheated the joint and
  pushed the wire into the tubing. The solder flowed to the new
  wire, a bit dropped to the floor, and the rest completely filled
  the tubing. I then applied 2 layers of heatshrink tubing over
  the finished joint.

  Worked like a champ.

And it still does.

Is the Powerwerx ATC 20- amp fuse and holder suitable for fusing the power supply lead to the K2/100?
