Re: Antec EarthWatts EA-500 – final recap and mods
Mom, great write up. I'm new at this. My EA-500 stopped working. I took it apart and found some questionable caps. I'm confused though. Could you point out in the picture which rails are 12v, 5v and 3v? I don't know how you can tell. Also, which caps should I change while I have it turn apart. You wouldn't have made a list did you? Thank you for your time!...

Smart Appliances these days?
Hey fellows, couple of questions. I have a led on my Fridge that lights up every six months telling me its time to change the water filter. I'm assuming its using a 555 chip or some timing circuit to turn this light on every six months. To turn this led off, you have to press a reset button. I actually change the filter every two years or when I noticed the water flow start slowing down. My Cuisinart coffee maker has a red light light come on when the maker supposedly needs cleaned. I havn't noticed any set time when this coffee maker decides that it needs cleaned. Here is my question. After I...

The top disk is wired to the bottom disk. From there, one wire comes out. Strange.

Can't Remember Why?
Hey fellows. I have 13.8 volt DC power supply that I have had for a long time.
Years ago, a co worker added two Chromalox 10.5 ohm What I believe to be resistors on it. I can't remember why exactly he modified it this way. I'm not sure if it was to increase the amperage or just a dummy load for it to work better? Anyone have any idea's? Thanks

Relay energised indicator?
Hello. Anyone know of a good "tester" for determining whether the coil of a relay is energized or not? I'm basically talking about 8-11 pin cube relays (ac coils) that do not have clear plastic covers or may be hard to see through. It would also be nice to be able to test small 12 or 24vdc relays on circuit boards where you can't get to the back side of the board. I believe this type of tester senses the magnetic field when the coil is energized. I have only seen one advertised called the Magfinder for around $50. Any one have any experience with one of these or can recommend something...

Re: Large capacitors - any value?
Thanks for the info fellows. I've used the search function on here but am still confused on how to reform a cap exactly. Anyone got a link to a threas or site that explains how to reform exactly? Thanks!

Large capacitors - any value?
Hello everyone and happy easter
I have five large capacitors that came out of old xray equipment some years back. They seem to charge up and discharge ok (using my digital meter). Is there anything that someone would use these caps for? Is there a better way to test them? Thanks!

ESR Meter CAL.
Yellow all and happy new year.
I have the older Dick Smith ESR meter, the one that is black with the red led display. Is there any way I can calibrate this meter to make sure its accurate?
Seems I've been getting a lot of caps lately that reads the same value. Thanks!

CAP- esr value?
Hello again,
I'm using my dick smith ESR meter to measure a cap. Measured out of circuit. Its a 200volt, 470 u ohm electroylitc. I measure .99 on the meter.
The chart of the front says this:
at 100volts = .05
at 250volts = .3
I'm sort of in between with 200volts. What would you say would be the worst case esr for this cap? Thanks!

Re: Zenith - One color on startup?
Hello again,
Hey guys, will the chassis number for my set (SL3285BG) be stamped on the board? There are two seperate boards in there. Any idea what the number might look like? I'm going to look for that focus/screen assembly from a ctc169 chassis also like Wizard suggested. Thanks!
