    Flexwatt Setup

    I was wondering if there was any other way to setup Flexwatt other than using those clips? If there is could you guys tell me how to do it ?

    Thanks

    There are several ways but the clips and the insulators seem to be the safest.

    As an added measure of safety, when installing the insulators I sealed them with non toxic heat resistant silicone to make me feel better. I would hate have a short due to a tipped water bowl, even though King has never flipped his.

    I don't know very many people who would put Flex-Watt in an enclosure. You have to remember the both edges have exposed copper that would need sealed and the coating on Flex Watt is not that thick. Would not take much to scrape an area off leaving exposed copper again.
