i don't see any new video on ytube. Facebook is uncooperative as usual. I wonder what the gist is with the Aegir 2?

Heat question: Can a Gumby be stacked on top of a M3?Oh, and some new photography is up.

Ummmmm. No! (IMHO). The thermal load is at the very edge of acceptable from what I can tell from Jason's previous posts. I would highly discourage stacking on top of MJ3.

Dang! The Gumby, M3. and Freya N would make a lovely space heater...errrrmmmm...component stack! I wonder what the BTU output of such a stack would be?Ummmmm. No! (IMHO).

Far be it for me to disagree with Jason on something he says about his own products, but even the Mjolnir 3 on top of the Gungnir gets borderline too hot for my taste. At least without spacers, the Gungnir's metal heats up quite a bit with a Mjolnir 3 on top. That's not the Gungnir being unable to dissipate its own heat, but getting heated up by the Mjolnir sitting on it. This might not necessarily harm the Gungnir, but it's not great, either.
With spacers, however, it's fine. (I've been using cheap Amazon-sourced large-ish cork stoppers. Others like to use HVAC anti-vibration pads.)
But yes, anything on top of the Mjolnir is definitely a bad idea.

Good to know. I have round metal replacement feet/spacers/pucks that should work fine.

Yeah, hence "should be fine." But Gungnir puts out a decent amount of heat. Plus there is thermal load from the bottom of the MJ3. So "should be fine," means "in a cool room."
