Posted by worldproducts.com is a chart demonstrating MOV
life expectancy for various pulse widths and peak current - as
was described in the previous post. Chart simply demonstrates
how an MOV degrades; not self destructs. As stated earlier,
an MOV self destructs when operating well outside the ratings
of that chart - when grossly undersized - insufficient joules
to provide effective protection.

Any MOV that 'sacrifices itself' does not even appear on
the chart and does not provide effective protection. Any MOV
that 'sacrifices itself' was grossly undersized - ineffective
protection.

I see you are still up to par with your long winded nonsense and you
still have not learned to post to Usenet properly either.

Up next... a kill file update.
