Yeah the 2 cogs is a trip... you get more range of adjustment with 2 I guess, kind of takes the place of the azimuth screw in a sense. I haven’t been adding any heat pads to the one LA/BA that doesn’t have any heat pad and it's been just fine here. There has been much talk about this, or if it would even do any good if the chip gets hit hard the heat pad may not have time to dissipate. I know there have been people jimmying up there own heat sink with light gauge aluminum bent like a 'V' (kind of like a spring loaded heat pad that pushes up against the LA/BA) and gluing it to the heat shield. This seams like a vain attempt to me. There has even been discussion on adding resistors inline with the LA/BA to subdue voltage spices. This also seams like a vain attempt to me. I wish we could find a place that sold something similar to the material Sony uses for the heat pads.
