    Converting group regulation to independant

    I have a pretty nice unit (not going to say what exactly, that will be a surprise,) that employs group regulation on the secondary.

    Is it possible to convert it to independent regulation by taking out the big 12/5 coil and replacing it with two other coils (I have salvaged a lot off of different units) Also, there is one small wire that is also wound on the coil, I'm guessing maybe for the -12v or something. Could I just use something like small coil or a pi filter coil in it's place?

      LG 55LM6200-TA country group/Area option
      by notallbad
      This is a 2012 LG TV so aware full functionality of the smart functions/apps will be limited however currently unable to get the LG Smart Store.

      Youtube, Netflix and LG Smart store icons briefly appear in the apps list but then automatically disappear after doing 'Initialisation of Premium' via the standard menu, I'm guessing this is due to the Country/Area group its set to is wrong for the UK.

      Unable to change the country group, Area option can be changed which alters the country group but none make any difference. So believe its the country group that needs changing....

      A Dead/DOA Gigabyte GP-P450b 450W ATX PSU
      by momaka
      More eBay specials: this time a Gigabyte GP-P450b 450W ATX PSU for $8 with free S&H. Listed “For part/not working”, as usual. Showed up in a beat up EVGA box without any padding… but that's understandable given the total price. PSU made it out fine without damage. It's a non-modular (yay!), pretty modern-day looking PSU with a black paint and all black cables (meh, not my favorite, but figure it's good to keep a few of these in case I do need one for a more modern PC build, just so my old gray boxes don't look too odd in there.)




      And a shot of the label:...

      KingWin ABT-650MM 650 Watt ATX PSU [PCB: SW8835REV:A]
      by momaka
      For today's thread, I have a KingWin ABT-650MM ATX PSU. Official web page with the PSU specs is still up and can be found here:
      http://www.rmac.kingwin.com/products.../abt_650MM.asp

      I just can't help it when I see a broken / for parts PSU on eBay that's listed for cheap and looks at least somewhat interesting. Well, OK, I won't lie – on the outside, this PSU looks anything but interesting. It's a plain gray box with colorful “spaghetti cables”.




      What mostly drew me into buying it is its 2x PCI-E power connectors...

      KDM 480W PSU upgrade succes! (opinions?)
      by bauto601
      Back in 2020 i bought a (2nd hand) compact ATX psu to replace my current one. My PC case only fits very short ATX power supplies so i didn't really have the choice of buying a decent 80Plus unit. The current unit is a modded YoungYear unit that i made a thread about a while ago:
      A "nice" YoungYear unit? - Badcaps

      The "new" unit is a KDM-M6480 480W psu, the 480W number is a typical KDM bullshit claim of course, but the 24A rating on the 12V rail seemed reasonable and the "Active PFC" claim gave me a bit of hope that this was going to be decent-ish....

      How can I test coil whether it is really broken or not?
      by chth96
      I have old game console which have connected to 220v outlet by previous owner and It is not able to turn on.

      I checked continuity of fuse in PSU unit with a multimeter which is shown in the below picture with a orange circle around it, and It seems that fuse became open circuit.

      I also found that as well as bulging capacitor, there is unidentified coil which has residue all over its surface

      I want to replace this round black fuse and unidentified coil if it got broken.
