  Re: When is "Not an Auction" really an auction?

Potentially more annoying are sales that when you enquire about the item you get the reply, "You were the first to ask about this item so it should be yours, but someone else asked about it too so I'm going to auction it off instead."

  RE: External Power Port Problem..?
 
To be safe, you could use a small 1A fuse. You can buy in-line fuse holders in electronics parts stores. It's a little black tube with a screw on cap, and wires or solder tabs on both ends. Just tape it to your battery pack. Another possibility is (...) (25 years ago, 2-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
