To all.. I attempted to send this message out on Wed., but I think my fat fingers must have hit the wrong key.. Oh well, I'll try again..... First, HAPPY THUR.... Second, we are going to be using a thermally conductive electrically insulating adhesive tape and pre-cut forms to conduct the heat from the components, through the pwb (10-12 layers) to the backplate (heatsink). Does anyone have any hands-on experience with this product, especially from the manuf. side, and would like to share their war stories???? Thanks in advance and have a great day...
