Re: the gutless, bloated, and fried power supply hall of shame
Nice. Its sad to think that someone sits there and removes parts until the thing stops working. Then they just put the very last part back and ship it! I didn't notice the lack of a bridge rectifier until you pointed it out. I guess they ran out of them that day! And I just noticed that like yours, the primary filter caps on mine are rated for only 200v. So much for being able to use the high side of the 120v/230v selector switch! They could have left that off and saved another 2 cents. I guess I'll tuck this one away for possible repair in the future just in case.
