vu duo not switching on

From the pics it's quite difficult to say but there doesn't seem to be any exploding components on the PSU. What did your guy who knows all about PSUs say?

i got some new ones on thursday and most of the caps is black instead of blue and there seems to be a extra little component on the new ones i got as well

Looks like an extra capacitor, are there any numbers on it, just had a look at the pics I posted of my PSU and it doesn't have that extra cap although the holes for it in the PCB are there.

hi m8

the only numbers on it is 473 if you look under your psu it has something in place where holes is and there is more elsewhere on underside of board but they are very small

got new psu put it in and box works now. any ideas how i can make the new psu last longer. if i switch box off when not watching will dat help?

It is the heat that kills, extra cooling should help like an external fan. It seems these PSU's are operating at their maximum output.

Can you post up some pics if you don't mind of the diffs on the underside?

problem again wiv psu now the box reboots every 30mins or so. think cheap parts were used in the new psu which i got about 2weeks ago from mixshop. can anyone on here fix my old psu as i dont want to waste any more money in buying a new one??

[potrobber]

asad did your new psu have the extra part like in the pics i posted

if not its not a new psu its old type psu all the new psu's are like in pics

the new psu's have been out for over a month now and anyone selling anything different than whats in pics is just off loading old stock
