Re: CIM Noise

It very well could be heating/cooling. The AM Toughbox has a lexan backplate, and plastics are known for having high coefficients of thermal expansion. It could very well be that you're heating that plate up.

If you continue to have problems, you can try making a new back plate for the Toughbox out of a stronger material (like a plate of 1/8" (or holey 1/4") aluminum).
