Of the two I have here, one provided 8A into a meter (near short circuit)
and I gave up after 5+ seconds.  It doesn't have a "polyfuse type cutout as
they would show some actions by then. It MAY have a slow blow fuse but I
suspect the main fuse is a transformer winding.
TBD.

I could definitely set a house on fire with one of these.

Murphy could too.
