In addition to the other good comments here, check your in-line fuse to the
KPA100. I've had those small cartridge-type fuses develop an intermittent
after being a period of time. Sometimes its just a bad contact where it
presses against the contacts in the holder, other times one of the
connections between the fuse wire and the end contact opens inside the fuse.
Very often the bad connection is highly temperature-sensitive so everything
will seem okay for a while then suddenly it opens briefly until it cools
again, then everything looks okay until you draw significant current again.
