You can make cheap audiophile quality cables comparable to expensive designer cables. F/BNC/RCA compression connectors assemble quickly and easily with common varieties of coaxial cable and grip with 360° high strength retention,...

175mA is definitely too high. Typical current draw using 2 9V batteries is around 50mA. Something must be getting warm.

I am so scatterbrained, thank goodness amb remembers these details. We Mini³ified our PINT weeks ago. I wasn't going to mention the pcb surgery, as the ferrites should also work inside the feedback loop, but perhaps not for the ground...
