* Faster-cycling modules tend to generate less heat per cycle.
* Faster-cycling modules tend to generate less heat per cycle.


Each heated cycle of any module has a ''chance'' to deal heat damage to the heated module, or to adjacent modules. The chance of heat damage at the end of a cycle increases with the level of rack heat; how hot a high, medium, or low rack is affects how much of a chance of heat damage there is. The increase in the chance of heat damage caused by higher rack heat is not a steady, linear increase: high levels of rack heat generate a ''much'' higher chance of heat damage than low levels of rack heat. Rack heat is displayed in the three dials directly above the circle of the capacitor indicator. The leftmost dial displays low slot heat, the middle dial displays mid slot heat, and the rightmost dial displays high slot heat.
