The PB socket #5 worked initially in the first power, and it did also in the second PB you got as a free replacement.
Both #5 sockets died at your place during usage
what does this tell us?
The socket #5 was overloaded. It is rated with 2A. Even if the constant current of the device is < 2A it is possible that the initial current is too high.
A too high inrush current will destroy socket #5, this dimmable socket has MOSFETS in opposite to #1 - #4, they have relays which can stand high inrush currents.
We see this problem when a cheap power supply is used, mostly far east products, or a electronic ballast.
-> bottomline:
this can't be solved over the forum, please contact the GHL service
