Maybe its a bad batch
Is it restricted to a recent production run?
If it is what are the Serial Numbers ?


Mine has been working great for 4-5 months no issues

You beat me on this oneŠ

The unfortunate with the bad fuse should give the serial numbers on the list
on the list. it should interest Elektron too if they don't know exactly le
concerned batch.

I propose all posts giving the serial numbers to have a title begining with
[fuse] for further research/archiving.

As as soon as my future MD comes I will put a [goodtrader] (and not a
[badtrader] as far as I know at the moment ;) flag as it is common on AH.

Hi,
i would like to see a comment about this directly from electron.
It seems to be a real problem.
Since now i had luck in this case with my MD (Ser# E20600489-45).
Hope something like this never happens to me or the forthcomming MM!!!
Stefan
