  I did not perform the "LP Jumper Approach" fix. Nor did I illustrate the fix I used. Ignore what I did. Do what LP did, as you state you...

  Here's some more data for you: and... The IpH specs are telling us that the IC can pull up to 7.3A (probably less for an IC40, but...

  Yep I soldered all connections. The existing pigtails and my pigtails were long enough that there was plenty of room to work outside...

  Sorry, I may have misunderstood. If you're going to use a jumper between the reds and blacks, like LP did, then the gauge of that wire...

  Yes, both. Most would just wire nut wires together. And that will be fine. But, for example, I took the trouble to solder all my garden...

  Shoot, I don't have any wire in front of me just now to guesstimate. But 16 would be more than enough, if you can reasonably get it...

  My original "vision" was to not cut the reds and blacks. Just strip them, bind them together with one end of the jumper, solder all that...

  I personally like soldering. My theory is the IpH meltdown occurs because the pins corrode, resistance rises, then heat is generated...

  Can one of you point me to @Lake Placid's fix? I saw it before, I want to revisit it. If it's the one I remember, is was very fine work...

  Rosin core. Low wattage iron. What's critical is that you work quickly, with as low a wattage as will melt solder. What you don't want...

  I use an old RadioShack adjustable wattage soldering iron. It will output from 0 to 50 watts. I can fine tune the heat I need for the...

  The testing you did would not have included the IPH connectors AND the resistance they would induce into the circuit - which would have...
