Ooo, ooo, ooo... I get to pretend I'm smart and correct someone!!! It's not too much voltage, it's too much amperage, i.e., too much current being pulled through the fuse. Gawd, that felt good! Now granted, too much voltage is a possibility, albeit a slim one.

Not that any of this helps with the problem. I am feeling rather superior, so leave me alone...
