We used Talons exclusively this year. 10 of them (and another 10 on our 2nd robot). We mounted small fans on each of there to supplement cooling. We've had zero failures to-date after two Mid-Atlantic district events and the Mid-Atlantic Championship; 36 qualifying matches, 18 elimination matches and a lot of practice later.

We've used mostly Jaguars (with a few Victors) in the past 4 robots. We do not use CAN.

By this point in the season, I would have expected to have toasted a few Jaguars. Not so with the Talons. (We did purchase a Talon last Fall and tortured it nearly to death).

The Talon PWM connector is more secure than either the Jaguar's or Victor's. No problems with loosing PWM connection either.
