Graphene on the fuse body could not (rpt not) enhance conductivity otherwise natural failure of the thin wire would not prevent disaster." Geoffkait
Not sure either--just that, the graphene is the breakthrough in the SR Blacks and Blues and is visible in the fuse body, so just what is it doing there if not enhancing conductivity? I propose it does enhance conductivity, but if the fuse element melts, the graphene by itself is unable to conduct the over-current. Any other ideas?
>>>>>Well, I don’t want to reveal the big secret in case SR wishes to keep it that way, but obviously what you see on the outside body of the Black Fuse and the Blue Fuse cannot be Graphene. So, the Graphene must be hidden. And the graphene is almost certainly not part of the wire. So it must be under the black or blue fuse wrapper, but not all the way across the fuse body because Graphene is highly conductive. Ooops! Did I just give it away?
