Re: Tetrix Motor Fix

Warehouse,
The $9 Thermal protector is an auto resetting device. The smaller fuse in the battery is not a resettable device and will need to be replaced when/if it burns open. I am sure your mileage will vary on either device. The failures are caused by various designs and the stall characteristics each provides to the motors.
