Is this really an okey power supply? It seems like it contains some crap caps?

Re: Earthwatts Review
Only time will tell.
For about 10 cents more they have used Jap caps and then it wouldn't even be a question.

Re: Earthwatts Review
i have a earthwatts EA650 powering my big rig, it has SAMXON primaries which is known high quality but yeah the grab bag of capacitors they are using on the secondaries make me worry a bit.My Computer: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, Asrock X370 Killer SLI/AC, 32GB G.SKILL TRIDENT Z RGB DDR4 3200, 500GB WD Black NVME and 2TB Toshiba HD,Geforce RTX 3080 FOUNDERS Edition, In-Win 303 White, EVGA SuperNova 750 G3, Windows 10 ProComment

Re: Earthwatts Review
I've got one of these that I'm about to open to take a peek if anyone is interested in anything specific (I can take pics). It runs great for now but if there are known bad caps in it I will replace them for the long haul (it's destined for a home theater PC that will be on 24/7).Comment

Re: Earthwatts Review
I have an ea650 sitting on the shelf too. Its a decent psu with 3 12v rails, two of them 22a and one 27a. I had another but i sold it to someone for $20 lol. But i nitoiced that it used either teapos or ost. I dont remember. But after all the shit antec did a few years ago with all their smart and truepowers with fuhjyyu capacitors i can believe theu dont spnd a couple more cents and uses rubycons or something!Comment

Re: Earthwatts Review
Yeah i got mine on ebay, i was using a OCZ STEALTHXSTREAM in the pc which was 600watts worked good and had a teapo primary i think, however i was always scared it was gonna die after reading numerious bad feedback on newegg about units just failing and taking out the computer, however the antec EA650 is the #4 best rated power supply behind the corsair TX850 i think on newegg.My Computer: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, Asrock X370 Killer SLI/AC, 32GB G.SKILL TRIDENT Z RGB DDR4 3200, 500GB WD Black NVME and 2TB Toshiba HD,Geforce RTX 3080 FOUNDERS Edition, In-Win 303 White, EVGA SuperNova 750 G3, Windows 10 ProComment

Doesn't Delta have a pretty good reputation of reliability, even with lower-grade capacitors?Comment

I'm designing an ESP-based WLED controller board for WS2815 12V LED strips, with a primary focus on energy efficiency.
To minimize power consumption, my goal is to completely shut down the system when the LED strip is turned off.
However, the current buck converter powering the ESP module draws about 8 watts even when the LEDs are idle, making it unsuitable for low-power operation.
I am using below components:- Buck Converter: TPS562201 (12V → 5V regulated)
- Microcontroller: XIAO ESP32-C3 (with built-in USB-C)
- LED Strip: WS2815 (12V digital LED strip)
- Switching

While recaping Antec Earthwatts EA-380 I've broke one side of unknown smd element, it have no print, it's flatter and darker than smd capacitors on this board, shaped more like resistor but it's not resistor ofc. Unfortunetly the printed description was under it and element was glued to the board so I cant read/tell the letter before element number too. Have anyone any idea what it is? Maybe is there any diagram of this PSU?

I got this device yesterday and did some testing on some tabbing and some incandescent light bulbs and it seems to work very well from what I can tell but how do I know how accurate the m-ohms section is what can I use to verify it accurately I also tested some li-ion battery cells and this seems to be fairly accurate because I have another tester and they seem to agree with each other
I also checked some capacitors with it that were brand new and seem to show about what I expected to see with my blue capacitor tester so I think it... -
