It's so true... *sob*
We've had that happen too. It happened when the battery was somewhat low, and the compressor, when it ran, shook quite violently. I don't know if that is what happened to your 'bot, but it's something to look out for. And yes, I did see that beautiful spark of pure light eminating from that blown fuse.
