type fuse block needed
Does this fuse have a flat blade at each end with a hole in it for a
bolt? I usually mount this kind of fuse on these:

They are basically a plastic block with a stud embedded in it. The block
can be attached

I did not use a mounting block,
I attached the fuse directly to the post clamp on my first battery
and attached the cable lug to the other side of the fuse instead

I have purchased a fuse for an EV in the making and now I need a fuse
block that I can use to attach the fuse and the wiring to.
Expensive little suckers, aren't they?
Having looked at fuses and circuit breakers in the EV range, I've decided
Ah, an incendiary device! It seems to me replacing the burnt out car might
cost more than the fuses.

Yea, I forgot the part where I put the whole thing inside a section of
fiberglass cross-country ski pole. That should contain the shrapnel, and I
shrink-wrap the fiberglass to the main conductor, which hopefully keeps it from
contacting ground.
Fiberglass ski poles can be had at thrift stores

That can work. Just be aware that a fuse can burst when it opens at high
current (like a dead short). It throws bits of itself and molten metal
in all directions. This can melt or set fire to things around it. That's
why fuseholders are
When you get a store bought fuse you get some testing to tell you how fast
it will blow. Do you care if it takes a while to melt off? Or do you
prefer the higher level of circuit protection from a fast blow? Something
to consider anyway. It is not like the fuse makers are just taking us to

You can find leftover amptrap fuses on ebay for quite cheap. I'd rather
trust those than some skipole/solder contraption. There's a reason those
fuses have 1/8inch thick shells and are filled with sand.
Anyway, good luck.

Yes, I agree completely that commercial fuses contain a lot of engineering
value to best protect sensitive electronic circuits with precision.
But neither do I want a $10,000 GPS-based surveyer's transit just to set the
spacing on fence posts.
