That kit from OHR looks nicely done.  I wonder if the pcb was immersed in a gallon can of mineral oil instead of the included case, how much more power could it withstand then?  5x-10x maybe?  I could use the enclosure for something else. Otherwise I'd get a full paint can kit off ebay for about the same $.
