    You sure, I've heard of a few EVF's packing it in from putting in and pulling out while camera was on.

    Can any RED rep shed light on this

    I used to get terrible tearing and shuttering on the lower half of my LCD if it wasn't plugged in on boot or came in and out while the camera was hot. This was more of a build 15 thing, but I still haven't 'tested' it on 16 as I haven't had an opportunity on set.

    If you have this lower LCD flickering problem after connecting to the hot RED, activate the color bars and deactivate them, and the failure is gone....
