OGR has a great video on building a quick acting circuit breaker box. I built one in a few minutes. It works great and fast. Used the breakers from Tom's link above.

Go to any automotive parts store. They will have small automatically-resetting circuit breakers, typically in multiples of 5 amperes, for a few bucks each.

I'd like to add an auxillary breaker box to my power supplies... where to you fine folks pick up said circuit breakers? Suppliers/part number suggestions would be welcomed, my local Radio Shack didn't seem to have anything along those lines...
