PSU Shrapnel
H621 P222YN 268C PHIL what ever that means. Had a quick look at the components inside the psu and cant see where it came from. Judging by the looks of it it looks like the big fat things attached to the heatsinks. Looks like its had it. Guess the only thing i can salvage is the fan(hopefully). Any safe way of discharging the capacitors and testing them to see if it has been discharged? I want to peek inside more. |

You could try using a multimeter to see if any power is left in the capacitors.

Would that "big fat thing" be the Caps or the Transformer? From the looks of the numbers it might be a Capacitor that blew on the unit. That sucks. I could sure use parts from that dead unit. The modular board inside the unit and the cables would be great for a project I'm working on. The board is just what i need for a PSU Load tester I'm trying to build.

Ah a transistor broke. Probably used for voltage regulation. Thats pretty much a product defect there. Those don't usually just brake into pieces like that.
