Unhappy So who is running the new revised version of the comp 918's ?
Friday I replaced my recalled batch of 918's with the new ones. Now I am reading that the new ones are breaking . Could it be due to the fact that some people, is running hard, before the motor is at op temp??? I hope that is the reason. I will be one pissed off **** if one of these new ones break. My old ones all came out in 1 piece... But now I am leary of running these.. WTf

I am.
I also 'upgraded' from the blue stripes.
I had no problems with the old ones or the new ones yet.
Am I nervous, yes.
Will I worry, not much. Not yet.
