Quoted from bobbyconover:My GOT LE on location has blown 3 node 8 pcbs. I'd be willing to bet that we would be seeing far more failures if there were more LEs on location, but since most of them are going to collectors that level of stress isn't being put on many of them. If the problem hasn't been figured out by the time Premiums hit (which I'd imagine will be more common on location than LEs), we could be seeing it happen a lot more.
Yeah it's weird the Kiss at 82 has been rock solid. Only thing different on GoT is they went back to the single winding coil (Not sure if they're using PWM or Deger) which was infamous for blowing out transistors in the early SAM days.
