Re: 2898 electrical board
You cannot use the LED fans, they are not provided in the KOP or with the Victors.
They use motors, and the only motors allowed are those in the KOP and those included with the Jaguars and Victors as fans (and those are only allowed to cool the Jaguars and Victors, nothing else). Also, from what i've seen, the ability to rapidly pull out a physical electronics board gives no advantage, since the physical board adds weight over just attaching electrical components to the frame, or at least weighs more then perforated aluminum, and the quick disconnects won't help if a Victor dies.
It still looks good, just no LED fans.
If a Victor caught fire, then you probably got metal shavings in it. They almost never ever die, except for metal shavings.
