The above mentioned Grease tubes that were already ordered invain on Aliexpress twices before, finally arrived last week on 10 march after they were ordered for the third time which in all took at least about 11 months of useless waiting!

With those clips I of course meant the Faston type! (Dutch: Kabelschoen)

in my country it is very difficult to find such high voltage fuse in the hard ware stores i mean but I go the junk yard very often and buy broken microwave ovens and I always find some that is still intact and of course use the other parts for the repair in the shop. it is time consuming but eventually I will order a lot on Ali express and keep them in the shop just to save time going to the junk yard. thanks for sharing and have a blessed day

Addendum: Today 8 March 2023 two wired fuseholders with 0.7A 5KV fuses were received. Sadly both had different clips on each side with on one side the correct clip and on the other side a wrong smaller one. They both should be the normal wider clips. Like my original fuseholder was. Only after replacing the smaller clip the 5KV wire connection could be restored and my old Samsung microwave oven was fixed and working like a brandnew oven!

Strange sellers that sells these HV Microwave capacitors. Like this seller that sells 1uF caps as universal replacement caps. But his advert also mentions free shipping at an additional shipping price of about 8,15 Euro. Which is more than the capacitor costs.

In reply to Parasuraman S.

I hope the ordered set 5KV 0.7Amp fuses with matching holder won't take too long before they arrive. Because these larger devices simply take up too much space in my living room. I already had ordered products twice before in over 7 months that never arrived from Aliexpress. Like small Grease tubes specially for (3D) printers and other mechanic moving machines. I hope that
this third time ordered finally will arrive.

In reply to Tito Kanshulu.

If I do Tito I'm hoping it will not be because so many devices in my home start to go all out of order! (lol)
Like my desperately needed Microwave oven.

Indeed Imoudu, it is quite unusual that frequent daily used electronic products still work after all those years!
