Hello All,
I too have a Ring smart charger that the mains side of it is dead, but the 12v battery side still seems to work correctly in test mode.

Thus far I have found R26 is blown, and F1 is open circuit. I think the resistor is about 2W 0.2 ohm, and the fuse a 3.15A 250v. I cannot see any other damage to components or board.

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello All,
New member from t'other side of the pond(ie England), due to Ring smart charger losing mains circuit, but still working on battery / testing... No electronics training as such, and very little knowledge, but have played with 6v and 12v motorcycles of various ages over the years. I do do a little with RC cars / buggies, have a motorhome, and a occasionally flashing all it's LEDs washing machine... So, learning a little electronics could be very helpful.. Fingers crossed I don't make too much magic smoke along...
