Reply to "Legacy F3 Intermittent response to Aux1 smoke commands"

First off, the black tab is the smoke triac, and it most certainly should be secured to the chassis with the proper insulating pad and screw.  I just drill and tap a 3mm thread to mount it if there isn't one.  That is vital for the health of the triac, without proper heatsinking, it will quickly die.

The 6-ohm resistor is indeed in the smoke unit, and should be replaced with an 8 ohm one or you'll be replacing the regulator again in the near future.
