Hi,

I tried my first mod. M*g 5c with 6 3800 sub C's. Bored out tail cap, deanodizing the bottom of the tail cap, and shorten tail spring. Did the switch fix, pro gold contacts, switch resistance fix http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=99710.

Now it has blowen 2 ROP Ho's, one on fresh charge and one on rested over night pack with 8.02v but the ROP Lo worked both on fresh charged pack and rested pack.

Seems like I need more resistance in the switch?? Or add a resistor in the switch?? Read somewhere someone wired in 22 ga wire in the switch to limit inital rush of 4amps with the RoP Ho.

Any help appreciated. Jim
