Got a couple of those cheapo kam 1500w strobes & the fuses keep blowing!! They 1st blew the day they got delivered, but couldn't be arsed to send them back (live in shetland), so off I went down to the local electrical engineers & showed them the quick blow fuse i had taken out & asked for the highest amped fuse they had in that size!! These I think are 30 amp & they have been ok but 1 went n now the others gone 2!! So i went back to the engineers & they said thats the biggest I can go!! So what can I do now?? Tin foil?
Wish I'd had the money for a couple of Atomics...Nuke

If you're blowing 30A fuses there must be something wrong.  How are you feeding them a 30A mains supply?

Maybe not 30 amps then!! Can't look without goin 2 the lock up!! There about the same size as a normal 13 amp fuse out of a plug, but quick blow glass type!! The next 1's up from that that i was offered were about the same length but fatter!!
