    Do us all a favor and fix that PSU... Few things annoy me more than half-assed repairs...

          +1. Don't EVER under ANY circumstances recap with a non-japanese capacitor, especially a used one, and especially in that PSU. If it killed a Teapo, it will kill a fuhjyyu twice as fast. For that, I won't post another article on Hardware insights unitl you fix it properly.
          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

            For that, I purchased some Sacon FZ "polymer" caps off eBay to put in it.
            Just kidding...
            I swapped it out with some random Sanyo cap I had in my cap drawer. Happy now?
