Quoted from pinmister:I think Stern is realizing it is getting expensive replacing proprietary node boards that fail because they did not have fuses. I think capacitors will help but they just control the voltage, they still need to implement a fuse system for Spike. Capacitors will minimize high voltage from damaging board, but still not a solution to the problem.
No it will get very expensive for the owners as warranty is only 90 days. A HUO may not see these issues for years. What other issues are lurking?
