For those considering replacing a stock fuse with an inexpensive new fuse, I suggest purchasing either a Littelfuse or an Eaton/Cooper Bussmann fuse. A good source is industrial distributor Digikey, which has no minimum order requirement or handling fee:

They do cost more than $0.10, though. More like a dollar to two :-)
