Standby

[goldberg]

Hi,

I had a problem with my Skybox F5 before where the power adapter died, since then I have had a replacement and leave the box on all day, standby when not in use, is this any good for the box, do you leave you box on standby or not?

Thanks

I rarely turn the box off.

Thanks for your votes, I will continue to leave mine on Standby

one of common problem with leaving electronic devices on stand by is the caps in the power supply will eventually burn out. To prevent that you can leave the device unplugged from the wall outlet.
