Hi ,
i immersed my T3 50T in mineral oil and it didnt work . I had about 7 days an A9 , borrowed from a friend and everything worked fine in oil . So after that passing the test i used the same oil on my T3.

I split the main unit from the psu (it comes as one unit ) and immersed the unit in oil , same as i did with the A9 . 30 seconds after powering it up smoke came out , 15 secs later again the same and then there were small bubbles with smoke coming out  out of the fans, poping once they came to surface so i powered it off.

Any ideas about what went wrong  ?
