Aubur pid to ssr

What are you guys using for a fuse between the Aubur controller and the SSR? It shows controller output as 10vdc - 40mA output. Finding a 40mA quick blow fuse is hopeless around my area. Kind of at a loss to know what to use. Any ideas?
Thanks

You'll have to get those at an electronics supply house. Personally, I would not run one unless you can verify the specifications. Check the specs on the fuse closely. Many of these low-amp fuses have a resistance in the 150-200 Ohm range. Adding the fuse in series with the SSR could put you at or above the PID's output limit of 40ma and blow the fuse as soon as it's turned on.

I forgot to mention this in a previous thread. Sorry.

Thanks for the reply on the fuse, I am going to give it a try without a fuse, I tried the limited number of electronics outlets near here with no results.
