See if the tab is completely covered in plastic like the transistor body. :o) These insulated transistors only have a fraction of the power rating that normal ones have, like in the TO-220 packs you get around 15w for the insulated ones, and around 60w for the normal ones. -Roman -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
