Default External Voltage Cable - FASSTest

Dear all.
I want to make a cable for external voltage measuring on a R7008sb RX. The Futaba cable comes with a loose “fuse” to be soldered in-line. Do you know the burst current? Is it actually just a high-ohm resister, which in my opinion would protect TX and Powerpack even better than a fuse..

These fuses are readily available through electronic component vendors online. Some time ago I purchased a pack of 20 and the postage cost was more than the fuses themselves. They are identical to ones provided in the Futaba cable. With a little wire, connectors and shrink tubing you can custom make them for a few $ each.
