I'm in the process of pressing my DTR 445 module into my MS-SSW head, but just noticed an issue. The module appears to long? At least it is with the rear aluminum extension tube screwed to the front copper part. It appears it will collide with the pill.
Looking at the hulk build, it aqppears DTR did not use the Rear heat sink, but rather the small copper module only? Kinda hard to tell if he did that or cut the rear tube shorter for clarence.
I guess if I remove the rear module tube I lose the diode back heat sinking it offers? Can I remove the tube? Mine came preassembled by DTR, and it's very tight, and doesn't want to budge? Could it be glued to the back of the diode with thermal adhesive?
Hoping for comment for my fellow MS-SSW builders!
