After about 1000 ERA kits that have worked fine with that eye-ring, I suspect the problem was a bad physical/electrical contact somewhere at or near the ring. For those using high-draw or high-output charging systems, I've occasionally supplied a different feed wire that bypassed the ammeter circuit - the real limiting factor.
