    DEWALT DCB112 charger

    Hi,
    I have this charger and I want to convert it from 110 to 220 AC.
    I can't find the conversion instructions over the internet for this model.
    I know that I need to replace the capacitor, add a varistor and a thermistor.
    I know how to replace the capacitor and where to add the varistor but I don't know where to add the thermistor.
    Someone can help me with this please?
    Photos attached.
    Thanks in advance.

    just put a 400v cap in it and try it.
    these things are so cheap i'm surprised there isnt more info online.

    btw, that american power cord isnt legal or safe in europe - you need a double-insulated cable.

      Thank you for your reply. I am going to replace the power chord of course but I want to add the thermistor to eliminate sparks when I plug it to the wall socket.

          What is the P/N as printed on top of the SMPS IC1? It may need more than just capacitor Voltage rating change.

              Lenovo T460 Only Charges on One Charger
              by motormayhem
              Laptop Question
              Hello,
              I'm working on a Lenovo T460 that has been having trouble charging as of late. Its worked well since I've owned it for a few years. When I went to use it the other day it was dead and wouldn't turn on (was sitting on an Anker 65W GaN charger). After some fiddling with the charger I got it to turn on and start charging, but seemed like the charger was not working as it should (took a few plug and unplug cycles to get it to start charging).

              A day later it was dead again and wouldn't boot/charge no matter what I did. No lights or anything when...

              ISL88739AHRZ ISL88739 Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet
              by Document Archive
              The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
              configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
              charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
              4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
              the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
              the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
              charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
              bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
              NVDC charger configuration...

              how to prevent a connected charger from draining battery when not charging?
              by flat-earther
              I have an RC radio handset(Taranis QX7) which doesn't have internal battery charger which means I had to remove the battery every time I needed to charge it.
              So to improve it, I added a 15W USB-C charger board(link) inside and soldered it to the same connector on the PCB where the battery plugs into, great, now I can simply charge it with a USB-C cable.

              but the problem I found is that after the radio sat for two weeks without being used the 2S 18650 battery that I'm using was at 4.2V!
              So the battery is backfeeding the charger and being drained.

              How can I prevent...

              ASUS X54H laptop thinks it's always charging even with charger unplugged
              by flat-earther
              The charging indicator light on my ASUS X54H laptop is always on even when the charger is disconnected.

              Windows also shows ''Plugged in'' when charger is not connected.

              This problem started year ago gradually, when unplugging the charger the charging light took several seconds to disappear, then minutes, and now almost always on even when unplugged for an entire day.
              Strangely, before sometimes immediately when plugging in the charger the charging light went away, and later came back with it connected.
              If I let battery run out and say it has 3% Windows will...

              Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P odd charger issue
              by Johndill
              Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P that I've just got running.
              There was corrosion around PU1503 which shorted PC1518 & blew PL1504. (Reference pictures attached)
              I've replaced PC1518 & PL1504 & the laptop is now running however I now have another issue.

              Here are the tested scenarios:

              1. With the laptop running on battery, I plug in the 150W charger & the charger shuts off (no LED, protection mode) but the laptop remains running on battery.

              2. With the laptop off, plug in charger (LED says on) & the front charging...
