We have 3 20 Amp and 3 15 amp plug fuses, the 20 amp powering the fridge is still good but replacing the others one-by-one does nothing, I can&rsquo;t find the key to Darwin in the dark and my phone has 3%, but I&rsquo;m charging off my laptop and I have a solar charger when the sun comes up.</p></blockquote>\n<ul><li>Woke up\ufffc\ufffc, found my car keys on the floor in front of the counter where I put them down.</li><li>Went to get plug fuses. Screwing entirely new ones in, and the clock on the microwave blinks for 5 minutes before dying but nothing else.</li><li>Realize one of my daisy-chained boxes also has cylinder fuses.</li><li>Get cylinder fuses, replace.</li><li>Nothing. I resolve to charge my phone off the still-working fridge circuit, sit down to write this post.</li><li>Go to the bathroom, realize the electricity in my room and the kitchen is still on, but not the front room or outdoors.</li><li>Think maybe a surge blew the bulbs, try replacing my porch light.</li><li>Two loud bangs, I look up and smoke is now rising from where the house line passes by the trunk of a tree.</li><li>All power, including the fridge, now out.</li><li>Power company texts to say they&rsquo;ve detected an outage and are sending a lineman.</li></ul><p>So!</p>"}
