HAte to agree with pbj and personally I wouldn't recommend using foil for a fuse --but in this case the OP mentioned running the electric from the wall outlet (which is probably already on a breaker circuit) to a Smart switch (which most likely has overload protection build in ) and then having the internals for the arcade plugged into the smart switch - So the fuse inside the power switch attachment is pretty much just redundant anyway !

The problem I have with PBJ's comment is the fact that someone, somewhere, is bound to be stupid enough to actually think that it's OK to replace the fuse with tinfoil in any circumstance. You got Joe Schmuck who follows one forum post to use a power outlet inside the cab, then wires it according to yet another forum post, then sees PBJ here suggesting tin foil to replace a fuse.
Guess who looks bad? Numbnuts there gets away with being an ass and this forum looks like a bunch of ---smurfing--- monkeys.
This has absolutely nothing to do with me or anyone else, "absolutely gagging," to catch PBJ in a mistake. I'd call out Ond or ThisOldMan if they made that kind of suggestion. If a person doesn't want a fuse in that part of the circuit, they can buy the fuseless version of it. The onus is on them if they do that, not anyone here.
