Thanks CJT,topic still open for technical reasoning!

How technical do you have to get to realize that replacing a 1A fuse with a
4A fuse can lead to problems? The unit was designed to be protected with a
1 amp fuse. If something shorts in the unit that draws more current, you
may damage other components before the large fuse opens.

Higher current produces more heat. Very simple concept.

You could easily have an intermittent component or connection that cused the
excessive current that heated the cord. If it draws excessive current again
you could easily damage the device or even cause a fire.

Just put the correct fuse in the unit. The T1 is a time delay or slow blow
fuse, BTW, so a normal action 1A may blow prematurely if the device has a
large inrush current or sees a surge.

Thaqalain:
Heck with the "technical reasoning"..... how about COMMON SENSE. Logic
would dictate that you should be looking for the fault that makes the
specified proper value fuse blow.

As in most of your recent past postings you have demonstrated that you
SHOULD NOT be working on electrical devices...
.... particularly when you don't understand why you shouldn't replace SAFETY
related components like fuses with a higher rating than the manufacturer
specified. Doing this can easily result in fire, smoke, electrical shock
hazard, collateral damage, etc.

Daniel u right,I am sorry for not caring safety.Last night I have seen
same adapter some time blinks sometimes solid green.Meanwhile my note
book is not getting on power after closing it's case.
