That is one butt-yuegly "girl". Ken, you have been locked away far too long. Good to hear from you again.

Does it make sense the POE was doing something weird to fry them or more sense the AP was pulling too many amps?  AP seems perfectly fine in the office for 36 hours, so I'm inclined to believe it's the POE.     Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373   On Tue, Sep 11, 2018 at 2:51 PM, Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com> wrote: It resets immediately if it is going to reset.  Sounds like it took a hit.    From: Josh Luthman Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2018 12:45 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Surge suppression failure gigE APC HV   How long does it need to be cold for it to be self reset?  The one I took down this morning looks perfectly clean and I can't get pins 7/8 through it.  At this point I'm thinking the (AC) POE is the cause of all our issues (Cambium, so that pair is positive 24v and data).     Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373   On Tue, Sep 11, 2018 at 10:47 AM, Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com> wrote: Sure, you can also wash them with 90% isopropyl alcohol.  That will remove any water.  Need to make sure there is no corrosion.
