Fuse Help

Hey everyone,

I screwed up when I was testing my stripped LCD and blew a fuse. I really know jack squat about buying fuses... basically, if I can't get it at radio shack I'm lost.

I've included 2 pictures. I realize I forgot to put in a scale, but the measurement between the terminals on the other side is either 1/4 inch or 5mm.

Anyone know what I should search for to find this fuse? I bet mouser.com or somewhere would carry it, but I don't know what to search for.

Thanks!

EDIT: Well shoot, it seems I can't attach photos. I guess I'll just describe it: The fuse is a black cylinder, about 5mm high. The only markings on it are on the top, and they read: <PS>E JET bel T2A 250V. There is also what looks like an S in a circle.

I know that's not much to go on... but can anyone help? I'm just looking for the type of fuse to search for.
 
Cool, thanks.

What part of that text tells you it is a slow-blow fuse?

I've gone through all of the fuses on Radio Shack's webpage, and I didn't see anything that looked like the fuse. I do have a pretty big local electronics store, so I'll go there this afternoon.

Is there a specific name for this style of fuse? As in, "short black cylinder?"
