Since your in there soldering anyway, you could go old school and put in a glass fuse and holder.
Fuses & holder (from Amazon):
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DSBT9FL6/
Maybe the 1A fuse could work, but to be safe -
800mA fuse:
https://www.amazon.com/Qty-800mA-Fast-B ... 004HM0HKA/
Another option: Connect two RXEF040 in parallel (with plenty of spacing between the two), thus allowing 800mA of current to pass-through.
And as mentioned, replace with a RXEF090, although the 1.8A trip current makes me nervous.

why on earth would you want to do anything like that when you can use a resettable fuse where if it blows you just turn the console off for like 10 seconds and then it's good to go again.

Why on earth? So the controller board can deliver 800mA of current like it was originally designed to do.

i'd rather just buy a 0.9A RXEF090 off ebay or some other site if i needed, or just use the stock fuse providing it's not blown
they're quite easy to get.
