ok so over the last couple years i did a few deals were people sent me parts in trade for a service etc...
so i have been taking in these se analog boards / psu's thinking well i can use their parts of other things etc...
never really NEEDED a SE psu really before.
pretty much all the re-cap's i have been doing have been on already working SE/psu's
i guess i didn't realize once these things die they are gone.
and looks like they die for all kinds of other reasons even unrelated to caps.
the PSU died in my se/30 test machine today. i didn't really think anything of it because i knew i had a stash of se/stuffs
i know i had like 5 psu's i got from one deal and then another 2 from another deal.
after the first 3-4, re-caps then try then nothing….. i just started pulling and testing..
i went though every damm se/psu i had and none of them work…
Gees i didn't really know thee guys were sending me dead crap… i mean i goes it to be expected as i fix this crap
but i am only one dude and would like to have something working of my own sometimes…. ?! i guess the tis too much to ask for..
anyways..
like 7 SE psu's they are all dead… and i am kind of surprised because i have always been a big champion of SE's and how they are like
most of the time always good… even with out a re-cap…
looks like i never came across the right junk… LOL
so anyways … looks like when you run these bad boys till they acutely die… they are dead.
even if you change the caps… i don't have time to sit here and diagnose these i as i need to get my ass busy doing
other things lined up to do… but don't be like me… and run your SE/SE/30 psu till it dies thinking it will be fine
looks like not so much.
change those caps now. if you want the most luck as possible.
