That being said, I think you were implying it's still better to use
the metal tabbed package and use insulating hardware which will

Just a wild guess here...
But I suspect the epoxy coating may have less thermal resistance
than a mica washer with the bare metal tab.
I suspect the difference will have minimal effect on the operation of the
mixer. I'll opt for the epoxy coated device.
Thanks for your reply.
