They&rsquo;re tucked away in a tight space where heat just piles up. Here&rsquo;s the problem: if your lead wire sealing is sloppy, that heat will eventually bake the insulation until it cracks. Then you&rsquo;ve got a short circuit on your hands. I see this all the time with cheap, generic parts where the &ldquo;seal&rdquo; is really just a messy bead of low-temp silicone. It doesn&rsquo;t stand a chance.</p>
