Well, the new HOT shorted. Here's the details:
Played the TV for over a half hour. I watched maybe half of America's Funniest Home videos, and about 5 minutes of the Simpsons before it went.
I attached my multimeter's temperature probe to the heatsink, about maybe an inch away from the HOT (close as I could safely get it), and it got up to a high reading of 198 degrees Farenheit. This was with the back of the TV off and some mild air movement, not to mention the extra heatsink I put on.
Also, I noticed that the TV's picture concaved slightly when the picture had a lot of white in it.
PS: Got rid of the channel number staying on screen. Thank you giant universal remote!
