John Dirks Jr Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 So the heat eventually caused the SEC to melt and detach. Was it a loose connection that caused the overheating in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Which brand? Thermal feature had to fail. Plenty enough heat to trip a functional breaker. Somehow, I suspect loose connection alone isn't the full story. Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
