*Flipo - thanks for sharing ur experience

yep, i have digital voltmeter and all readings are within range.
(thanks for the heads-up on how to read the voltmeter, i have one but didn't know to interpret prior to reading your inputs, )

Yes, your experience/input is a big help. It will help my future decision on what to do next.

*love my Tamarraw FX - I have no other issues except just this start-up recurring issue.
