    Rackmount Computer...thingy..

    So I polled a couple of rackmount..cases..from the local salvage Tuesday. Two were switches, and they other was some sort of router/computer. It is labaled Golden Tree Communications, and has a Celeron 1300GHZ, a pci slot, a PC100/133, as well as two usb ports, a serial port, a monitor port, some sort of PS/2 looking port as well as ETH4,ETH3,WAN,LAN ports, and some damn proprietary AC adapter power connector (19V), which off course I didn't look for, because stupid me, the others all had three prong connectors. X_x
    I am going back to look for it thou, but...

    How do I find out more about this thing, and what can I do with it?

    Golden Tree Communications is a leading provider of easy-to-use, secure, and affordable high-speed Internet access systems for hotels principally in the United States and Mexico
    if its got wan lan then its a router.

    and some damn proprietary AC adapter power connector (19V)
    thats wierd

    is it standard hardware otherwise? post some pics
    anyway even if it has some proprietary software on it, i doubt it will be very interesting. would be a decent linux server i guess otherwise

            Proprietary battery pack
            by Hondaman
            Hello,

            I hate to ask this question, because there is no easy answer. Basically, I have a proprietary battery pack. 3 AA batteries sitting on top of 4 AA batteries, glued together. I need a "tab welder" to reproduce this. But I don't really know what settings I would use.

            Basically, it is the battery pack from a Scientology E-Meter ("John Travolta Space Cootie Detector"). I got it for journalistic, research and hilarity purposes. Only about 40,000 of these units were made ("Quantum Mark 7") so I suggest a new old stock exact match is out of...

            Retro Server Build - The Ratdude AT Rackmount Server Case Saga!
            by Topcat
            You sure realize who your friends are when they grab things they think you'd like....like a NOS AT Rackmount server case that turned up at a Goodwill store in Indiana....and even hand-delivered it!





            Inside:





            The build in mind is a retro from way back that I'm redoing for this case.... Tyan S1564D dual socket 7.



            The beginning...some of those standoffs will have to be surgically removed...



            ....but the first test fit was good!

            Testing ATX PSUs under load - Does loading the ATX 24 pin also load EPS & PCIE?
            by AJ847.63e
            Hi Folks,

            Just wanted to clear up a misunderstanding of mine (or what I expect is one). Isn't the 12V rail from the 24 pin, EPS and PCIE separated? IE if I put a power resistor on the ATX 12V pin that is not going to load, thus tell me if the EPS or PCIE rails are fine?

            I was recently watching ArIs from Hardware Busters video on how to properly test ATX PSUs without using 5 figure Croma substations.

            The PCB adapter he used breaks out the 12, 5 and 3.3V pins from the 24 pin and gives you banana plugs to connect to. That is a bit useless is it not? Aren't...

            Garage door RX unit (Cardin S38C) does not short relay to send opening signal
            by CoinCoin88
            Hello everyone,

            I'm turning to the Badcaps community to help me troubleshoot the radio Rx card from my (old) garage door opener. While I could just ditch that card and replace the whole system, I first would like to understand "why" it suddenly stopped working, because that's just how I am wired...!

            Some basics: the receiver works on a 30.875 Mhz frequency. Yes, I'm aware this is not in use anymore in a looot of places. It does not use any rolling code, it's just a regular dip-switch code that you have to set up on both the receiver and transmitter. The receiver...

            Philips curling iron - is this a common AC cable?
            by double_DD
            Hi all,

            Wife has 2 Philips hair curling irons half defective - after learning how they're supposed to work and testing them, it turned out that both have defective power cables, and both on the same place; broken wires due to wire bending.
            As they were both relatively easy to disassemble, and cables are plugged not soldered (as they can rotate in the handle), I was sure it would be easy to find replacements. But - NO! I'm unable to find anything similar on ebay or Aliexpress.

            Not sure if this is something Philips proprietary, or a standard, but the cable plug...
