Oops.  I erred.  There is no fuse on this unit.

 
QED.

He also erred, confusing the Amperage from a 120V
circuit for that for a 5V circuit -- then referred to
it as "EE", when it was basic electronics.

I was lucky enough to grow up with a Dad who was extremely
savvy to electronics, who learned the ropes from _his_ dad (as
well as being a Fire Control Technician in the Navy, and having
a career with electronics in DCPA/FEMA, and, and...).

Sidenote: Do they still teach electronics with discrete components
in High School?  I hope so...I learned it growing up, but having
a structured course with theory helped with my "STEM" career (which
wasn't called that back then...).

(BTW, I was converting horsepower to kilowatts and back again when
I would read Chilton manuals for foreign automobiles in 6th grade.)

ObLinux:

units(1) knows horsepower.
