Check the connectors first

The installation went well until the "Perif" modular cable was connected to the power supply. It wouldn't snap, so it kept coming loose at the connection point. I didn't check the connection before installing it (it's my fault) so I had to pull the power back. Upon closer inspection of the connection point, one of the internal electrolytic capacitors was leaning against the internal connection and preventing the clip from snagging. So I had to carefully insert a toothpick into the hole and convince the capacitor to flip back the other way. The cable is now firmly plugged into the power supply. Has been working fine for about 5 days. 3 stars for the installation because the average layman might not understand the problem.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
