Belatedly, this might help :toast: I don't know of any straight-up walkthroughs, I'm sure they're out there, but if you do more poking around with Google you should find some info. Basically what we're doing is shunting (that is placing a variable resistor into the circuit) a VR to modify the...

Oh man I hope not, haven't had problems so far with my 15 watt iron but it could be possible. I did desolder the SMR to test its individual resistance again and it was the same as pre-soldering. The cap could have been damaged though, don't know where I would get a replacement :banghead...

Mismatched OCP caps Heya Largon, me again with a question about the OCP caps. One of the two on mine measured stock resistance to be 1.029K, the other 1.043K. I triple checked to confirm. Upon soldering 4.03K SMR's to each, the resistance now measures 660ohm and 841ohm, quadruple checked. I...

Excellent! BTW I like the renditions of the wires and pots. So much easier on the eyes than dots :D I'll be trying the VMem pencil mod to see if my GT responds to more VMem. Stock is 1.88v strangely.

First I must say this article is awesome and makes it all much simpler than reading through the massive XSF thread, thanks for taking the time to write it. I am wondering about the reverse VMem page however. From what I gather, this mod decreases voltage as resistance is lowered so to have the...
