The only part of this that's repairable without risking voiding whatever minimal safety this thing has is the cables leading into it.\n\n I've never run them on 24v but it's a known issue that 24v introduces minor faults. Not well versed enough on electrical theory to say exactly why, but my theory is that device's are designed to",

If you install this in a wood frame especially its going to get \"hot\" every time. How hot is \"hot\" idk? the human body is a poor judge of temperature and what it thinks is hot is often just fine for electronics.",
