To me, that's too much goop. I use a blade to scrape off excess. If too thick, goop becomes an insulator. It's just supposed to act as fill so components mate at the micro scale.
Then again, I'm wondering if I didn't use enough...
Love that little mains board. Like a fool, I just used a 4P Terminal block. For my dual mono, I think I might see if I can't find a pair of 8P blocks to do in and return sides.
then leave it as is
I see that you simmered them all the way down, pin ceramics didn't allow nice solder form on top
of course functional, but ugly
never underestimate ZM's OmniOCD and enormous propensity for torture of Greenhorns
-yes, check temperature of mosfets (thick goop)
-hope goop isn't of electrically conductive type; whenever I see those computer goops, I'm vary
I am lifetime sissygreenhorn
Consider yourself lucky, as your build hasn’t been compared to a washing machine (mine was)
Thermal paste is not electrical conductive:

Chill, Vinz. Looks good all over. But post here and you will always be picked on for perfection, but it aint personal, and just to enable you and all of us to slowly perfect things along the way.
Wrt goop, check Nelsons bigass PL builds. Goop clearly visible, so using sissywrench, I think you are all good.
Mighty: I did not know you had an NTC board. I am using store softstarts, but as e-mailed about, I am interested in a couple of your nicely traced PSU boards, and a couple of them NTC boards. Or that only for ‘talians?
