I learned the hard way that hot-glue inside boxes that sit on the dash
of my car in Florida is not a good idea. The glue ends up in a puddle
on the bottom (or outside) of the box and whatever it was supposed to be
holding on the inside falls down. In my case, it shorted a + to - lead
on the 12v supply, melted the wires, and left a nice little smoke stain
on the windshield before the fuse blew thankfully preventing further
damage (like the car bursting into flames).
