RadRover 6+ Integrated Fuse

[thirdlife1]

At one time, somewhere on this forum, someone posted a link where you can purchase the the small (integrated) 10A fuses that are soldered onto the new RR 6+ batteries.
I cannot for the like of me find where that was posted.

Anyone happen to know where I might find this either the thread with that info, or a link to where I can purchase these fuses?
I had my battery warranty replaced as it came DOA, and now that I have the replacement, I have someone willing to try to replace the integrated fuse to see if that brings the original battery back to life.

I have a soldering set up and pretty good hang of it, so I think I could replace the soldered fuses. But I'm unsure where to source this particular style of fuse on the new batteries. Anyone with electrical/engineering background have any idea how to hunt these down?

Only asking because I have a 6+ en route to me from rad now and all this battery talk has me thinking I should have a plan if/when it happens to me. I'm assuming I'll be receiving the newer battery configuration with the soldered fuses. Maybe I'll luck out and get the older style though.

EDIT: Looks like I found it. It's a surface mount fuse (SMD). I'll need to get it in hand to see how easy it is to solder. https://www.tti.com/content/ttiinc/en/apps/part-detail.html?partsNumber=0451010.MRL&mfgShortname=LTF&customerPartNumber=&minQty=1000&customerId=

Another option might be to just leave the old fuse in place, bend the leads on an axial lead fuse, and solder in parallel.

Thirdlife - I think that is what you are looking for - thats from page 7 of the thread on replacing the fuses in the semi-integrated batteries. I think thats what you are looking for. There was another possible source on page 6 of that thread?

Sorry for the jumbled formatting. Couldn?t copy the link to the thread for some reason.

That's it! Thank you!
