Not only is there room on the bus, but we're gonna scoot back because you get to sit in the front seat. I think yours is the first we've seen of the IpH AND the surge board fried like that. Pentair has been admitting to the IC60 problem for a while now. We've shown here that the IC40 is also causing the same problem, with both the IntellipH and the surge board, but apparently Pentair is in denial about that (or just mum about it).
You're in good hands with Tom (ogdento) but there might be a new board or two in your future. Tom is looking into getting some of the current running through all this junk to do so off the board(s) somehow, and just running the much lower-current comm traffic through the board(s). You know, something Pentair should be doing!
Up to Tom if he needs another board or two, but thanks for offering. Between the growing number of us, we should be able to add up to at least most of one good brain!
Sorry for your bad luck...
