Wish I could help but have no idea what that is?!? Something you can teach me!!! LOLOLOLOL
The spring that's already in your Reo IS a fuse (it serves the same purpose)
So putting in another fuse is just redundant.
So putting in another fuse is just redundant.
The spring itself (under the battery) is the fuse. If you have a short the spring collapses which disconnects the battery from the top firing pin. It works almost the same as blowing a fuse. So you should buy an extra spring in case you ever "blow a fuse".
I thought using a fuse would prevent ruining a spring. Can't blame a girl for trying.
It could but I don't know the response time of the fuse. Better to be safe the fuse could also keep the spring from collapsing as it should.
There are a few threads out there about modding REO's to take 10A mini car fuses out there. They were done prior to Rob offering the upgraded springs/contacts. Really shouldn't be necessary now that those new springs are out.
Here is the thread in case your interested: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/472662-spring-what-spring.html
The fuse also compresses the spring a bit, so it may not be quite as safe as running it the way Robert built it. The spring works, yes, you need to have some spares around, but I've never lost one yet. "Measure twice, vape once", i.e., check, check again, then check one more time before you hit the fire button. Check the resistance (ohms) when you build it, check it again when you're done building it, and after putting on the cap and taking it back off, then check it again after you put it on the REO.
