This is how they save on costs, but will it work last time?

The photos show how the manufacturer of this resistor reduces costs by reducing the number of cooling fins that help cool the device when it heats up. It is shown alongside an OEM Honda part with a larger radiator. How much it affects durability who knows, but heat build-up is a major cause of electronics failure, so we can assume this part will fail sooner rather than later. Just FYI when you buy.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
