Title: Smart hub too hot?
Post by: wirekat on September 18, 2011,

OK I finally started playing with my smart springs. Everything works fine except the 100 ohm 3 watt
resistor got hot and fell off the board. Yep unsoldered itself and fell off. Everything still works OK.

Should I be concerned?

Nope - that explains it. I'll get me a 100 ohm 3 watt.

Thanks!

Kevin send me a paypal for $.01 and in the comments put it is for a replacement resistor for the hub and I will mail you the correct one that fits out.
