So i did some testing yesterday and the performance was all good!
60 Watts was no problem with only a gradual rise in temperature over a substantial length of time.
The tests indicate that it could sustain a relatively high dissipation of power, however it takes an equal amount of time to recover from such an application, if not longer!

I bought 4, they sent 8.
Just got them this morning.
Ive a nice large heatsink from an elenos here I can mount them to.
Gunna use a chassis mount ntype because I'll never really be testing anything greater than 5 or 600w.

I have a question for
Is the tab totally isolated from the 100 Ohms ?
Or is the tab one connection of the 100 Ohms ?
BTW: have you finished yours, if so have you a pic
Thanks in advance

That design is useless if you can't isolate the heatsink
