Time for a thread revisit. I'm going to take a few temp readings on the heat sink assy and post them here.
1. Factory transistor position, fan wired to 120VAC
2. Factory transistor position, fan wired to the monitors 90VAC
3. Transistors inside the heat sink, fan wired to 120VAC
4. Transistors inside the heat sink, fan wired to the monitors 90VAC
5. Transistors inside the heat sink, fan wired to 120VAC, external fan blowing onto heat sink assy
6. Factory transistor position, fan wired to 120VAC, external fan blowing onto heat sink assy
I also have a fan I added to the back door right in front of the heat sink. For the above tests that fan will be off and covered.
I really dont thin that moving the transistors has any positive effect on temperature but we will know for sure here shortly. I figure given the min 80's temp of my shop it would only take about 15 minutes for the heat sink assy to gt to maximum operating temp.
Demogo - To answer your question about the shield, torpedoes and warp do bounce when I fire the phasers. I bet the b+ does too... Might be worth a looksee.
