Saw these today while I was at the auto store thought they looked pretty cool. Anyone have experience, if not I'm sure there are plenty of opinions.

 

They glow during normal operation? Seems dumb

 

Oh no sorry should have put that in they glow when they've blown.

 

The packaging pictured says "it glows when it blows". I take that as it only glows when the fuse is blown. I could be wring tho.

 

If you're blowing fuses all the time where you need those, you have something bigger to spend your money on.

 

Usually i find out when a fuse is blown when something stops working.

Id hate to spend extra on a one time use item.

Also, it takes 14 seconds to test every fuse in the fuse block with a meter anyway.

 

Go to Walmart and grab yourself a $3 3M circuit tester. It literally takes seconds to check the fuses then.

 

Or you could take 1/2 a second to find out which one it is.
I agree though not worth it for people who know which fuse control what. I didn't count how many fuses there were but it was almost $5 bucks. That picture is as close as I could find to what was at the auto parts store.

 

Couldn't see it on my phone

 

If they are the same price if not cheaper than other fuses then I don't see why not

 

Here we go straight from the oreilly website. $6.19 for a set of five

 

used em in my amp a while back. still have a bunch of them. they only glow for about five mins after they've blown. so if you're driving aand they blow then by the time you stop to check it wont be glowing anymore. waste of money to me.
