I agree.

I've gone ahead and resoldered and this time added heat shrink that I shoved up through the eyes of the heatsync pushing right up to the solder joint, l'll put things back together outside the hilt tonight and let it run for 3 minutes then turn it off and just let it sit on my table to see how it acts turning it off and on with more resting periods.

Maybe I'll goof around with the old Nbv4 to see if I can bring it back to life. Make myself an excuse to find it a home in another build :grin:

Hoping I don't jinx anything. So far there has been no issues, since I redid the Tri-Cree soldering and used heatshrink tubing pushed up on each wire to the solderjoint, I've not had any issues. Multiple uses and battery swaps.

Also the new 2watt resistors were a good change too, they get hot, but not stupid hot that they are melting nearby wires and plastic like the three 3watt resistors did.

I think the next build I will go the route of a charge port and kill key

Thanks again to everyone who helped out.
