Suitable Sub?

[MazdaFan]

I was wondering if these "resetable fuses" would be a suitable substitute for the fuses on the active hub?

I tried to match the characteristics of the original fuse as closely as possible.  Just seems to me that if the fuses are resetable it would make things a LOT easier when you screw up your wiring and have to dig between the RJ45 jacks to get the old fuse out. 

Heck... they are even a .01 cheaper than the originals! 

What say you, gurus?

Not just no but ?>?>? no! that would be a get way to have a fire. If there is a short the last thing we want is for it to keep appling power. If we want that we would do away with the fuse. Fuses like that are for a certain situations and this is not one. this is a hazard so please stay safe.

My original pixels were much less waterproof than the ones available now and I had a strand burn itself completely in two when rainwater got inside it creating a short. Thank goodness the fuse blew or I could have had damage to the hub and had a dead megatree for the season. Fuses are a necessary pain.
