Hi Jim
Im Oz based and my supplier is local only so thier part numbers
arent much good...

I did the mod , and initially my pic based lcd wouldnt bootup.....There
must
be an inrush current on powerup causing the  resettable fuse to start
clamping...I soldered  another 100mA resettable fuse in parallel and it now
works fine.The normal running current of my lcd board was 40mA....so i
would
suggest using at least a 200mA resettable fuse (depending on the current
draw of your attached hardware)....

HTH
Frank
