To the extent that their processing works, it reduces the effectiveness as a fuse!!
The description reminds me of superconductors. The wire can take a certain amount of current, but above that (due to the magnetic field it generates and something-or-other), it is no longer a superconductor. It seems to me this would be a near-ideal fuse.

No doubt there's some snake oil salesman lurking here who is now going to claim his fuses are superconducting up to the rated blow current.

Superconductors work in a different way. The crystal imperfections are still there, but the paired electrons don't notice them.

However, can you imagine the fuss in audio when someone actually manages to make a genuine room temperature superconductor? We will all be drowning in snake oil.

The proper scam-artist term is "near superconductive." Since it's meaningless, the cops can't bust you for claiming that.

Is that like "near virgin" or "almost missed"?

Close. I have a good definition for "near virgin" but it's probably not appropriate here!

But guys, I need to know all about this quantum level process so that I can apply it to my skate blades and go faster.

I'm going to guess it has something to do with "Third Base."

Peace,

Much worse. Trust me on that.

I'm thinking of Willie Dixon now and one of his memorable songs.

Covered by the Doors, if memory serves.
