Honey Bee question

Postby strat-rock » Fri Jun 19, 2009 8:02 pm

I made a mistake and ran it at 18v for a probably under a minute, twice. Didn't sound good. Seems to sound ok now, did I do any damage? How would I know? Is the only symptom after this, no sound at all or is there some degradation of the sound?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks. Sounds pretty good, I'm doubting I did any damage. Did not sound good at 18v though. I'm guessing if was going t break, it would just fry a cap or something and not make any sound.

Ok, you guys have freaked out. It's working, I'm going to break it. Maybe I should have it blueprinted.

Hi,

I believe you'd know if you actually broke it.

You know where my mailbox lives in case you need assistance.

At your service
