Thanks Hoppy,

no need to replace the bridge rectifier as we suppose to run with 240V dc which will pass throught this FWBR.

Regards Itsu

As you rightly say, no FWBR replacement necessary. At the moment, I'm measuring 85V in with 11V out with a 12V / 20W halogen lamp as load and no additional load on the device output. So, a fair way to go yet!

Regards

    I wish that I could say the same, as I can't even get the new fets I need to continue on, here in C.R.  But, they are ordered and will be here, any month now, coming by turtle shipping, from China.

  Reminds me of the first page of this thread, where two computer PSU were fried, before finding one that finally worked. If I remember correctly, as it's been a while now.
  I wonder if the PC type of PSU might work for us, as well. But, I wouldn't want  to see them go up in smoke though.

These cheapo PSU's are pretty much shite but can be OK if not worked too hard. Mains input voltage surges are a common cause of premature failure, so unlikely to be a problem in our application.

Thanks, PSU bought

One more think somebody might know here. I did a surgery to several Microwave oven  caps. I removed 10MOhm resistors and I am thinking to use it in this device + their diodes.  The caps are 1.0 uF @ 2100V AC. Your opinion?- are they suitable??

  "  Each new circuit that Ruslan is showing lately, looks more and more like a commercially made unit. Or not?"

  Sorry for the blurry pic. But, it seams to me that Ruslan is not making this PCB circuit. Nor is Akula, making his, nor was Kapandze's really making the aquarium device. So,... again, I wonder who is behind all these self runners?

Any experienced electronics hobbyist could produce a board like this at home. Nothing special here.
