Quark fried, blown capacitor...

zpb, that's what I did. I made a 6 cap bank and while it was running, temps were very cool on the controller. After half an hour of running, I believe that it temped at 140 or so.

I did send mine in last week. At the same time that I sent the caps out, actually. I'm hoping to get a surprise in the mail as well. The sad this is that I just sent my Neu back to Neutronics yesterday to exchange the motor for what I ordered.

Although I liked the motor, I would always have wondered if I had indeed gotten a mismarked motor, or if something was actually wrong with the one that I had.

So...another two week wait, according to Neu.

Neu is pretty good about turning things around. I had to send tham a motor once and they turned it around in about 2 weeks. I had a brand new motor that I ran it the first time and the magnets came loose from the shaft. I will say that they had some suspect people that I talked to on the phone when I called to make sure that they had recieved it. They kept taking my name and number and telling me they would call back and then I never heard from them. I was starting to get concerned that nobody there could confirm that they actually recieved the motor from me when it just showed up in the mail. I think total from the time I dropped it in the mail to the time I got it back was around 20 days.

Just make sure you include a very detailed note with the motor on what your problem is.
