Several vendors offer blown-fuse indicating panel mount fuse holders for 3AG
fuses.The indicators are LED/NEON/INCAND and rated at 20amp.They are quite
expensive at $20-30 apiece but would consume far less panel space.
Question...have any of you conjured up a wiring diagram for an inexpensive
fuse holder(1 to 2 bucks Canadian) together with an inexpensive LED which
would light up when the fuse blows?

Just trying to prolong the build process.

[Should be pretty simple using an OR-gate to provide the ground side
for the LED... cheap too.  I think you can get a standard IC package that
includes 4 gates for almost nothing straight off the shelves at your local
RS, and LED's are inexpensive as well.  If one of our EE members cares to
sketch out the schematic I'd be happy to upload it to the LML website.
