    1-to-3 12v cigarette adapter

    I think a fuse may have been blown when someone connected a high powered device to the adapter.

    Specs:
    Input: 12/24v
    Output curr.: Max.DC5A (except USB)
    USB output curr.: dc5v-max 5.4v/500mah
    Total output: 60W (except USB)


    I've taken it apart and included some photos of the circuit board.

    Looking for advice on identifying the bad component.

    Thank you.

    The fuse is in the connector... You have to take it apart, there should be something you can screw off the top and a fairly common glass fuse will pop out.
    "We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."
