That is probably what he did. cause that kind of heat would have definetly popped the fuses. Or he could have put higher rated fuses than what it called for. Sure fire way to fry something.

Im not sure how long ago it blew, but man it does still stink. I had it in the house for about 2 hours and it stunk the house up.

Its outside on the porch now.
