    Mains inverter build quality pictorial

    Calibre 240V/1000W Pure Sinewave Inverter (12V input)

    On each of the output transformers at the primary side:
    2x HRF3205 MOSFETs on each side of the centre tap
    2200uF 16V x2
    30A fuse x2

    On the isolated secondary side:
    Both output transformers secondaries are wired in series
    MUR860 x4 full wave bridge rectifier for the HV DC output
    IRFP460 x4 H-bridge output for the AC output
    1000uF 250V Chemi-Con KMG (fake) x2 in series for the HV DC output
    1000uF 35V for the low voltage control supply
    PIC16F716 microcontroller (not code protected ) for sinewave generation/AC output regulation

    Note to moderator/admin: I believe that this topic should be a sticky.

    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

    can you do a scope trace video of the sine wave unloaded and loaded to max ?

      Philips F9217L-50R speakers – build quality impressions and DIY surround repair
      by momaka
      More Lo-Fi speakers and another DIY surround repair. The patient this time: a pair of Philips F9217L-50R speakers from a budget Philips rack/component system from the '80's. The system belongs to my brother in-law… or actually his parents. However, they didn't want it when they moved houses and he liked it anyways, so he ended up keeping it. It's a pretty cool-looking vintage system with a wood/veneer cabinet and shelves for records and cassettes. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it or get the model #'s (but maybe next time I visit, if anyone is curious?)

      Boston Acoustics HD8 – build quality impressions & DIY woofer surround repair
      by momaka
      Boston Acoustics fans, this thread might not be for you.
      A few years back (~2018 time frame), I picked up a set of free JVC speakers from someone on Craigslist that no one seemed to be interested in. The guy also had a single Boston Acoustics HD8 speaker – yes, just one cabinet. He said he had no idea where he got this one from or why it's only by itself. But like the JVC speakers, it was going to get tossed at the end of that week… so I came to collect, as usual. And that's all I know about this HD8. After all, I figured why not take it and see what's inside… show it to the...

      Vizio E55-E1 bad backlights or bad inverter?
      by x_orange90_x
      I just got this tv today and it appeared to have no backlight on. After taking off the rear cover and checking again in the dark I can see that MAYBE one quadrant is lit.. But still it's quite dim. I was going to check the LEDs with my tester, and I found LED 1 and LED 2 + pins on the wire from the inverter, but I couldn't identify a ground. Nonetheless I tried using a mounting screw on the inverter board and also the chassis as ground but regardless my tester reads 300 which is what it reads when there is no voltage draw.

      I don't know how exactly to test the inverter itself. Is it...

      Backlight strip quality, Amazon vs Ebay vs ShopJimmy. Is there really a difference?
      by DXseekerMO
      Hello everyone!

      Recently I've noticed that some ShopJimmy backlight strips don't have double-sided tape installed upon them when an application calls for it, and I must purchase the tape separately. In a recent chat conversation with a customer service agent I told them if this tape wasn't applied when it was called for I would begin to consider ordering my backlight strips elsewhere. It looks like this time may have come.

      I recently got a TCL 65S4 with bad backlights. After looking at the SJ listing here: https://www.shopjimmy.com/tcl-jl-d65...365as-m-led-ba...

      APSINT3636VR 3600W APS INT Series 36V DC 230V AC Inverter/Charger schematic
      by Gentian
      I have a tripp-lite aspint 3636vr inverter charger which blow some of mosfet transistors. I replaced them repaired also the driver circuit and tested but the mosfets burn again.

      It work very well as inverter and also as charger if I let the rear switch in auto mode (inverter) and charger only(charging) but in auto when I connect the feed line 220V AC first time it pass ok to line and start charging the batteries but when I remove the feed line it pass to inverter mode and if I do it again the second time when passing from charging to inverter the Main transformer start making a...
