Well, I haven't touched that yet, but I did some testing around with the degaussing coil.

I removed the thermistor from the circuit and tested it. Under normal room temperature, 12 ohms. Under ice it went down to 9.5. Then heat from my partially cooled off solder iron it went up to 20, so that seems to be doing its job.

The degaussing coil itself measures a 2 ohm resistance. Left unplugged upon first power up its pins are receiving a full 120 voltage.

Though when plugged in, it stays at 120 for a split second and drops down to 0.2 volts.

I thought degaussing coils get a steady voltage drop through the thermistor?
