Here is an analysis of one from bigclive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxEhxjvifyY Though mine did not have any potting resin in it, either. From what I can gather Fotek are a reasonably reputable company, but are being heavily counterfeited. The fact that mine were constructed differently from the one in the video rather suggests that mine are counterfeit, even if the one in the video isn't. The one in the video is 100% over-rated, whereas mine was 150% over-rated. Not that that actually explains the failure. The devices have not been asked to pass more than 2A so far. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
