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

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?

Hi everyone. i'v started learning electronics before the corona hit so that's not very long time ago. but anyways i started with only a multi-meter then i started getting into micro-soldering and soldering in general, got myself hot air station a bench Power-supply and last but not least a microscope.
About the microscope at first i just wanted to get those 15 usd USB digital microscopes to try but some people talked me outta of it and i decided to go for something better but not professional as i'm just starting out.
So i had a choice between a binocular & camera , i wanted... -
This BMS board has promise it made like most BMS battery board I seen before but this one is made to use the power supply input jack and the power supply supply switch
The first dispointment is the batteries that are used are no brand name batteries they claim 2 amp hour maybe this might be the case but I have not done a battery charge and discharge cycle yet so I can not comment on this yet so we will see if this claim is true or not
But I going to use the Samsung battery out of a Kobalt battery from Lowe’s for $20.00
The charger that comes with...
