If you have an on-going problem, it might be really helpful if you could take a digital photo of your set up and post it.
By following the IFI wiring guidelines (and good electrical practice) we have managed to fry two Victors in five years and no Spikes.
The first victor died because of a grounding short such as Andy describes. Since then we have attached the victors to frame through plastic screws. The second died when a drill motor brush came loose and shorted the victor output under load.
We have found the IFI hardware to be pretty bullet proof when used correctly. Although it is possible that you have a bad unit, it is much more likely that you have a wiring fault, especially if you have blown more than one unit in the same configuration.
Good luck.
