RE: Cryo'ed circuit breakers

Fuses of players, preamps, amplifiers, etc. have been routinely cryo'd for at least a decade, without issue, the tiny delicate filament of the fuse manages to survive every time. There is no reason whatsoever to suspect that a breaker would be compromised by undergoing cryo, especially in light of the fact that cryogenic treatment improves the performance of materials, you know, makes them stronger, less brittle, more durable and, in the case of conductive metals, makes them better electrical conductors. All this hand wringing over cryoing wires, fuses, fuse holders, tubes, cables, transistors, breakers, etc. is a tad silly.
