I recently had the backbox open on my Tommy and noticed a lot of heat coming from a group of 8 resistors on the PPB stamped 3w27ohmJ. These were so hot that I couldn't touch any of them for more than a second. Not sure what they are for but believe they're part of the flashlamp system.
I know DE PCBs are known as heat generators but I thought this was strange. Other similar resistors on the board seem to run much cooler.
Like to know if anyone else has noticed this on their DE game especially if its a Tommy. Wondering if this is normal and if there are replacements available that don't run so hot.

Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated.
