That sounds really great, 10 hours without running hot. Certainly the
2N6259's will cook eggs after that length of time. I'd say we have a winner
here.
I'm going to hold off ordering the 2N6259's for a little while awaiting
further tests of the MJ15024's...I'm going to get some of those myself to
try on my two GO8's that I am trying to restore.
