'66,

Is your viewpoint/dislike based on what you think is a high failure rate? or a safety concern? I have always thought UL was perhaps a little overcautious in their testing. If these things burn themselves free and stop working when heavily loaded/overloaded they might even be seen as safety devices? [Linked Image]

I don't remember if I've ever seen one that had gotten to the condition shown in the picture. I'm thinking that they may stop working before they get that far.

Anyone?
