    Wondering if these should be set to 12v or automatic. When i got it on automatic the resistors dont get especially hot. If i set it to 12v they get smoking hot, melts the heat glue.

    The docs for the sabertooth is rather lacking.

    Thanks

    I wasn't sure if you meant power supply or tooth because tooth doesn't list those settings in manual. You must mean in Describe then. Don't know I don't use it.

    No worries and I'll make sure to be more specific in the future.
