I prematurely countered Murray's statement about the potential failure
mode of MOV's.  Old age kills off some of the brain cells so I went
looking for some answers and found a terrific site that tells you more
about MOV's then most people will want to know but also gives some very
interesting data on types of failures.

A couple very intresting points are made........

1. Let the buyer beware

2. All MOV's are not created equal

3. Be aware of the new UL standard on MOV's

4. Your mileage may vary

Have a great day and be safe out there, folks.
