So Im trying to figure out if e6000 glue is appropriate to glue the thermistors to the transformer? Or what glue do y’all use? I think Sean added 4 total to his old pj upgraded my plan is the same but no idea what glue to use. Please chime in & thanks.

Any glue that isn't acidic / chemically unstable should be fine--you don't want it to eat the enamel off of the transformer wire. (Pretty sure Sean uses regular hot glue.) A favorite trick of mine is to try to slide it under some windings.

I didn’t even think of sliding it under the windings, very smart idea Sid. Thanks for responding btw.
So just an update I got glued the thermistors. I have 3 on the mosfets & 3 on the transformer. Waiting on 3 more thermistors to show up.
Figure I update this. So I have all 8 thermistors hooked up: 5 total on transformer & 3 on main board. Picture below is all the locations I installed on trans & scroll up for the ones on main board if you missed it. Enjoy.
