guys as embarrasing as it is, i think it was user error.
i can't get the thing to fail again, i've filled and emptied the hopper about 10 times now just into empty pots not thru the marker, and the thing hasn't stopped working once. it would seem i didn't know how to turn it on properly. lol
bolter i'm a bit unsure of which part you mean, 'drive spring'. i took the shells apart, took the spinner thing out and the bead thing off (thats all fine btw, they rotate freely), then reassembled same as i took it apart, even put new tape over the wires (inc eyes) to prevent movement. all gravy now
i even learnt something about config from this thread. you guys are awesome
running it in mode 3 nowwith new batteries and all cleaned inside.
