this thing ought to be consuming about a half amp from the wall. However, there are going to be transients at switch-on which could easily exceed this amount. By a lot....

Slo-blo is the way to go. an amp or amp and a half should do quite adequately.

If you have a 500 mA fast fuse in there I am not suprised you're toasting them...
regards,
Douglas
