Re: Samsung FP-5084 Plasma tv Power supply issues

I well take a look at the cooling the cpu (install a fan), but I don't think its the same issue.
It click like five times didn't turn the panel at all and a fuse i didn't check the first time was bad.
After I replaced the fuse the mosfet burned out on the board like the panasonics 50" had a issues with mosfet burning out which blows the fuse's.
So I'm thinking its the same issue.
I want to be sure there are no more shorts on the board and replace most of the cap with higher quality caps.
Maybe I well keep it for me and sell the two panasonics 50" not sure yeah.

TH-50PX80U and TH-50PZ85U are the two I have at home right now.

The 5084 was the flagship Samsung for 2007 and it was Samsung's first true 1080p plasma.

I would put it between the two pannys you have, the best being the Z85U (I have the 46" version of the Z85 and its great).

Personally the z85u is probably your best bet.

5084 makes a great video game panel though, I sold the one I fixed to a friend and he has been enjoying it!

Tom66,
I have a question on the Dim-bulb Tester what type of bulb do I need? The stupid US government outlawed 100 watt light bulbs.

100W ideally !! 60W or 75W as second choice. You can usually buy 100W from eBay sellers.

I have a stockpile of 100W & 150W just for my dim bulb tester (LED lighting for actual house lights)

Yeah I well have to order them. I can only get 73watt bulbs now in stores which is stupid.
