Ted,

Not Q7 and Q8 in the base K2, but for the KPA100, yes tightening the screws for Q1 and Q2 should be done after 5 to 10 hours of operation at greater then 50 watts.

I vaguely remember reading somewhere that after some number of hours of

be tightened, I presume to maintain good heat conduction from the tabs to the 
sink.  But I can’t find that instruction in the manual now.  Anyone know where 
I might have gotten that notion, or did I just make it up?
