Emax

no fuse that is unusual as the ones i get do have the fuses

for short circuit protection

but you had yours made and i suppose they never implimented it becuase you 
did not ask

ted i have had someone contact me saying you had no screens left and could i 
get 2

dlortsher is it becuase of the waiting list as he wants 2 now so if you have 
no interest from others can you contact him as he wants 2 now
