[R-390] Inrush current

[Bill Riches]

What is the current carrying rating on the thermistor?  If it was sold for
an R390A and used in an R390 it may not like the extra current that the 390
pulls maybe.

Basically, that's it.  It runs hot, so keep it well away from anything that
could be overheated.  I'd put it affter the fuse, just in case it burns
down, sags, and shorts to chassis.  Top of chassis is better than
underneath, so the heat has somewhere to go.  Add a terminal strip if you
need to.

Best regards,

Charles
