They treat an IPX5 rating like a shell problem—basically just putting a <a href="https://o-yate.com">plastic</a> cover over things. But the real nightmare happens at the connection point. Specifically, right where the lead wire enters the heater body. In a high-heat environment, that spot takes a beating. Standard seals shrink, crack, and eventually give up. Once that happens, moisture sneaks in, the wires oxidize, and—boom. You&rsquo;ve got a dead short.</p>
