    Wtf is this?

    I bought 10, 3300uf,6.3v kzj caps from fleabay about a year ago and two of them have no readings with a capacitor meter and they are puffed out like they have been installed the wrong way or something,have you seen this before just from storing them? They were stored in a cool spot the whole time The rest of them seem OK but can they be trusted?.

      I've seen that before with Fuhjyyu a few times. Given how low quality KZG/KZJ are, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they can do it too.
      I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

      No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

          yes we have seen previously on this forum the chemical process occurring even in non powered storage. i would discard them all.

              I would discard them all anyway, even if they didn't fail in storage. They are KZJ after all.

                  i tried to find how to do factory reset with no luck
                  when auto tune was completed it would show how many chans found ,
                  then after pressing ok or exit
                  tv would return to sby and no chans stored
                  i found that menu 1147 would enter s mode

                  Daewoo DT-42A1 not storing settings
                  by Trevtron
                  A friend asked me to look at this old-school plasma set.
                  It runs fine, still has a good image considering its age but every time it is switched off (at the mains) it "forgets" all its settings.
                  I've had a good look around, was hoping to find a lithium or backup battery, or a storage capacitor but there's nothing obvious on the psu or main board.
                  Anyone had dealings with these? I know it's not worth a fortune but it would be a shame to bin it.
                  TIA....

                  Storing Li-ion cells...
                  by eccerr0r
                  Sigh.

                  I had a good Li-ion spare cell that I kept in the refrigerator for safekeeping. It was charged to about 50% before storage and AFAIK it does not have protection - the phone handles the battery gauge.

                  A few years later I decide to inspect the cold storage Li-ion cells I have. This cell shorted while in the refrigerator... the only one of the 10-15 I have in cold storage! And this particular cell I was hoping to preserve (among a few, there are a bunch there that I didn't care for if they died but kept there anyway.)

                  The battery developed a fairly...

                  Seeking Dell G15 Motherboard ICs for Embedded LED Controller (UEL1 and UEL2)
                  by NotEnough
                  Hello everyone,




                  I'm working on a repair for my Dell G15 motherboard (model GDL5L) and need two specific ICs to restore the functionality of the Embedded LED Controller (ELC). The missing components are labeled as UEL1 and UEL2 in the schematic, and they're both critical for LED control and system signaling. Here are the details:




                  1. UEL1

                  • Part Number: SA0000AWJ70

                  • Model: STM32F070CBT6TR_LQFP48_7X7

                  • Function: This microcontroller manages system signaling, power management, and SPI...

                  OT (?): storing disks
                  by Curious.George
                  I keep a lot of offline media. Lately, the number of 3.5" disks has been increasing at an alarming rate (I place limits on the sizes of spindles that I will support so this means my data density is "fixed", per "disk unit").

                  I keep many of the drives to which I may need frequent access in SAS shelfs. But, there's a lot that are just sitting on a closet shelf (i.e., not accessed often).

                  Anyone have any favorite "right sized" boxes/containers that neatly fit say 10 or 12 drives (more than this gets to be a bit heavy)?
