No SMD fuse there though, but there...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
Found a 40" Philips BDM4065UC 4K LCD monitor in the dumpster.
All that was bad was the LED backlight strips, all four of them.
Bought new ones on eBay for €27 and it works fine again.
But the size...

Re: Component identification
I'm partial to them since they were actually manufactured in Sweden in the past ;)
I would do as redwire said: replace with any safety agency approved X2 capacitor.

Re: Cyberpower CP900EPFCLCD - F03 Error
Ok, so with these values it looks to me like your incoming line voltage is 233VAC
Since you measured 227v in series with the bulb this is the voltage it drops.
So therefore your measurements of...

Re: Topcat's Other Misc Weird Build Thread
I bought a Sigma DP2 second hand for around $100 a few years ago.
I don't regret doing so, because I now cherish my Canon EOS 40D even more :D
That said it is a pretty cool camera once you get the...

Re: Eizo S2000 suddenly died
It's alive!
I made one more test with the voltage regulator U1:
I connected a 100ohm resistor across the fuse to give it a small load.
Just to make sure that was not why it was not regulating...

Re: Eizo S2000 suddenly died
Hold your horses!
Fuse F3 on the LVDS board measures open!
So I started it up and measured the test point "V33" on the board that sits behind the other fuse F2 via voltage regulator U2 and sure...

There is also activity on the small programming port (or whatever it is) with designation CN801

Re: Filter Cap AC Ripple Questions
It is completely normal if there is no more active filtering.
I.e. if you just have a bridge rectifier and a cap you will have ripple.
The amount depends on the size of the cap and the connected...

Re: Cyberpower CP900EPFCLCD - F03 Error
Yes, just plug it in now, the lamp is allowed to flash once bright as the caps charge.
After that it should be quite dim.
If it is bright then it is expected something is still shorted.

Re: Cyberpower CP900EPFCLCD - F03 Error
The "T" in "TAPc" could stand for "Time Delay" i.e. a slow blow fuse.
But none of those letters really make sense so could just be production numbers...
If you try with a quick blow fuse you don't...

Re: Cyberpower CP900EPFCLCD - F03 Error
Great, I would replace this fuse with an old incandescent 40w or 60w light bulb.
If this bulb turns on bright when you turn the UPS on you still have a big problem somewhere.
You can of course skip...
