***No Neil, In fact they are less susceptible than any other small decoder I've ever seen as their motor drive and fuinctions are both higher rated than Lenz Micro, ESU Micro, Digi and NCE.... In the micros both lenz and ESU are particularly vulnerable.

Frying is always a result of a user or loco wiring error - there is no other way to put a big black mark on a decoder.

***Seven! Please don't take this the wrong way but thats a lot of fried chips! I think I'd be calling you to "Please explain" before I replaced them!

Do you really always check things like proper brush isolation before you add the decoder??
