Hope the change up works out much better for you.
Yeah, it was my mistake thinking it would be a good idea. In my defense though, the thought process was something along the lines of "eh, if something goes wrong the worst i have to look forward to is a joint failing". The idea that the cement would melt, expand and fry my elements didnt even register
