    Vertical-Mount Power Resistors

    I noticed yanz likes to upgrade preload power resistors to 5W bathtub-style wire-wounds. The axial lead (horizontal-mount) types are pretty awkward for this, so I thought I'd provide links to info about some radial lead (vertical-mount) types. These will also save a lot of PCB space if you build an external load box. I used to have a load box that I built in an old ATX P/S case. I kept and connected the fan, mounted the power resistors near the fan, and also had window detector circuits that drove LEDs that told me at a glance whether each O/P was in regulation. It was a nice go--no-go tester.

    The URLs for the resistors:

    Power Supplies should be boring: No loud noises, no bright flashes, and no bad smells.

      Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
      by Tynan Dill
      I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

      Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

      I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

      The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

      With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

      Assuming...

      Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
      by GLISIT
      Hi all,

      TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


      I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

      A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

      Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
      by sam_sam_sam
      I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

      One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

      by meraklinetx
      Hello, I have an asus Z97-A motherboard and it doesn't start which was working properly before, the problem isn't related by ram, ram slots or psu (I changed all and nothing work), the exact problem is when you switch it on , it starts and after 1 seconds (no boot or display picture) it's off and then on cycle continuously until you power it off from psu also it's responding to the power switch for turning it off if you keep pressing it 3 or 4 seconds (power button pin has 3.3v) , also when you start it with eatx 12v socket connected this is happening (power cycle also all voltages are resetting...
