i can appreciate that. But then again, I also had a customer that was
buying 70a. JBs
and putting them on a kenworth, and wondered why he was burning them
up. found out the guy was pulling an average 116A load, with all his
"chicken lights" etc.
They "looked" the same as a 130 amp JB series, but obviously the
innards wern't strong enough. But he was getting them cheap from some
supply house's "overstock special".

No, he wasn't getting what he was paying for.

but the price was right...... LOL!
