Hi guys,
Everyone is paid in full - Thank you. I intend to ship the USPS boards on April 4, but I might do them on the 3rd. Does anyone know if USPS is open on Saturdays? PS. I did more experiments with a 12V SLA battery and some load resistors. The fusible trace was able to withstand a current of 8.5Amps (using a 2 and 3 ohm resistor in parallel). The trace did glow and blow at 10.5Amps (using a 1 ohm resistor). Using no resistor at all (only the resistance of my meter leads and the battery's internal resistance), caused the (+16V) trace to pop in about 50mS. In any case, the rest of the trace and gold plated finger did not get damaged. I had no idea a 10mil trace could take such punishment. It's a 1oz copper board with tin plating. I don't know how thick the tin plating is, 1 or 2 mil at most I guess.
