Why do I feel like I dodged a bullet here. My 180 came with one. it shocked me so I tried to add some extra silicone at the top where the wires go in. I ended up tossing it as i didnt trust it not to shock.

I tossed my stealth because it was shocking me.
I switched to Hydor heaters and felt they were very accurate. I'm running them on a controller now so I can kick fans on for cooling in the summer. Never an issue with maintaining temp without the controller in the winter. I've been running them for a couple of years now with no issues. I would never use one. Whenever one of these threads comes up it is usually a Stealth. I can only remember one "Heater exploded" thread that wasn't a stealth.
