dryer?
the label on it has been partially burned off and is unreadable

I guess the fuse blew because I used it inside my blankets (to quickly warm
the bed).
Hard to say what the temp is inside on the highest heat setting where the
fuse is located. I suppose the air temp at the nozzle is around 150F but
again who knows what it is inside.
I would just go to Radio Shack, see what they had, and pick whichever
one seems reasonable. Assuming they still sell them, which they
probably don't.
If it`s a microtemp, I understand that they are colour coded by the seal. It`s been a few years since I bothered repairing domestic appliances, so I dont recall what the colours denote.
