I have recently had various Chinese "audiophile" fuses pop up in my newsfeed. One of the oddest ones claims to reduce resonance by filing the middle part of the fuse with nanographene and the end caps with powdered quartz.. This strikes me as a crazy concept because graphene is an extremely conductive material. How would a fuse that surrounded the wire in the fuse with graphene possibly work? The wire blows but the current still flows though the graphene and my amp self-destructs? WTF
A picture is worth a thousand words!
1. Imported quartz sand
2. Spiral silver copper fuse wire
3. Nanographene
4. Silver cap
Could it be possible that this fuse does not actually contain honest to goodness nanographene?
Scientists describe nanographene as a "quantum material" with potential application in quantum computer technologies.
Note that the manufacturer of the fuse claims that it has undergone "special quantum processing" to improve the sound.

It better not be real graphene unless they can guarantee that the wire will always burn at one of he ends. 😉
If the filler material in the fuse has any credibility at all, it is likely to be graphene oxide rather than graphene.
Graphene oxide can be a semiconductor or insulator, depending on the degree of oxidation.

Slightly OT, back in the days Hi Fi world use to recommend the use of mini quick action breakers forgot the brand.
If its a diy project why not use breakers instead, their contact point & current carrying capabilities are far better than fuses

For the same price I can sell you a cyberfuse with nanobot technology and quantum response. These sound even better and is combatible to any conventional fuse. It get's cryo programmed for your application.
What is the price because Apple re- pack that fuse and sells it for $300 . Every time they change the color of the housing overnight lines of European morons wait to buy a fuse and post it immediately on social media that they bought it. The reality is they have no choice because they are not likely to get any if they don't have that fuse.
Graphene, quantum, silver, quartz, golden letters.....uhmmm I missed "AI" in the specs to complete modern audiophile grade 🙂
Chinese are learning fast how marketing works.

Thank God Americans are not gullible at all! 🤪
The price is US $35 on ebay.com

Another useles thread which belongs to the lounge...
We're currently in 'Parts' and the quantum fuse is definitely a 'part' - a device to encourage the gullible to 'part' with their money! 
As long as that fuse does not have direction arrow for current to know which way to flow, its no good.
Graphene would be pure carbon, aka conducting and not fire proof. That would certainly not pass a VDE test, nor is it CE worthy.
Damn, they have whole collection of maximum-BS "tuning" components.

I find that quantum plug very attractive 🤓
On the plus side: That guy has a valid WEEE registration.

Sorry but this is actually not always true when it is about the average breaker for home installations.
For instance the parameter short circuit current.
