Re: Losing Jaguars? What are the common reasons why it burns out?

As said by ben, we have lost a lot of black jags. i took one or two them apart to try and figure out why the kept burning out. It looked like the electronic valves (i think that's what they're called. its the 8 boxes around the central capacitor) actually melted the plastic encasing holding the in place. One of the mentors on the team told me that that usually happens when the source, gate, and drain components inside the valves get knocked out of place, which messes up the flow of electricity
