Smart hub too hot?

[wirekat]

OK I finally started playing with my smart springs. Everything works fine except the 100 ohm 3 watt
resistor got hot and fell off the board. Yep unsoldered itself and fell off. Everything still works OK.

Should I be concerned?

Did you get the replacement resistor from RJ? the one that came in the coop was not 100ohm

Nope - that explains it. I'll get me a 100 ohm 3 watt.

Thanks!

I used one of these from Radio Shack.

Kevin send me a paypal for $.01 and in the comments put it is for a replacement resistor for the hub and I will mail you the correct one that fits out.
