And MY original post -- a response to one from Jason -- was that a
Max could, indeed, run in less than perfect conditions without
catching fire. While Maxen do run warm enough to impress the masses,
I wouldn't consider them a fire hazard, and they do quite nicely even
under suboptimal conditions.
Remember the words from my original message -- "while we finish
construction"? Meaning "not permanently"? Of course, anyone who
purposely installs expensive, heat-sensitive equipment in a highly
unfriendly environment and expects it to last forever is foolish. I
thought that point would be pretty obvious to the average adult and
would not require a specific disclaimer.
