RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Gecko burned out (not about tinned lead s)

Well, I, for one, didn't know that!

I use these type terminal strips all day long, and while a lot of them are
removable, some are not-for whatever reason, I assumed the Geckos were not,
and I never thought of giving them a tug!

That will come in handy.

Thanks, Tom

I presume every one knows the connectors on the Geckos are
removable? They slide down over posts on the PC board. They are in
groups. Carefully pry upwards and they will slide right off. By
removing them and working with the wires where you can properly
insert and see them and carefully check the clamping action lose
wires can be avoided.
