 Need help identifying electronic component

I have a 12VC-110AC 2500W power convertor that recently fried some electronic components. All 8 items are the same size--about the size of dime, two conductors and soldered on the PC board. I removed them for indentification. A buddy tells me they look like a resistor, and have the resistor symbol printed on the board next to them. However, the letters preceeding the item no. (1-8) starts with TH-1 then the resistor symbol.

Anyone know what these are?

BTW in the same row of these of which these make up one-half, there is more similar but smaller components like them that did not fry.

KW, it looks like ink-dot printing that says:
First line: (circle with some sort of symbol) NP
Second line: U or J or V, a line over E1 then larger 06.

It could be the two lines are actually two vertical columns in which case it would be:
First column: (circle with symbol), a small horizontal line, then U, J or V
Second column: NP, then 06

The fried ones flee apart to reveal what appears to be compressed carbon tablet that looks like an alnico magnet is made of--I guess. A conductor lead is attached to the front and to the back of the tablet. Then it is coated in the insulator. The whole thing is no more than an 1/8" thick.

Any idea what the "TH-x" and the resistor symbol have to do with it? According to my buddy who looked at it, he says there 8 switching transistors in row parallel and next to these what-ever-they-ares.

It was bought in early '05 so '06 ain't right as a date code Smile

The TH thing: Picture an assembler looking at the PC board and it shows printed on the board TH 1, TH 2, TH 3 and so on. Next to each TH (No.) appears the resistor symbol inside a rectangle: -/////-

The resistor picture I'll try again -VVVVV- in other words a zig-zag line in a rectangular box.

Sounds good to me, makes sense. Where would I go to get something like them without knowing the values?

Okay, but this unit takes 12 volts and makes 110 AC, so does that change things?

I bought it off ebay. There are no markings on it. The seller could not (or likely would not) call the mfg. who is in China. I feel fairly confident KW's steering me to the Digi-people will work.

Thanks KW!
