If you're going to be playing with live voltages you should know better than you should have a isolated transformer so that you don't kill yourself.... 🤭

Hello! Caveman here. Been watching your PS5 videos for sometimes and im currently working on a no power ps5 so these types of videos help alot. I just got my power supply in to better diagnose where my issue is coming from! keep up the videos man

Back around 1984 I lived in an apartment, no surge protection, and during a thunderstorm the lights blinked and a little curl of smoke came up out of my printer. It was actually a fancy typewriter that could be converted with a card to a letter quality printer. A computer and printer was a stretch for my budget. I got the card replaced, and bought a surge protector. I haven't been without one since.

What I would do mate, I would have the power wire plugged into a switched outlet, so you can handle the power supply while plugging it in, then flip the switch, and when you unplug it turn the switch off, so you can be as safe as you can be.... Just a thought.

Back in 1970 when i was working in a White Goods store that had a TV Technician repairing all electronic gear. The technician got fed up with the boss moving the little piles of resistors ETC, the components that he had arrived to do the repairs, that the technician had placed in front of the things that he was working on. The TV technician started charging up capacitors and leaving them in the little piles as well. The boss soon stopped touching these piles after receiving several shocks.

out of all the console repairs, excluding HDMI port replacements. number 2 would be PS5 Power Supply replacements. it use to be ADSL modems and fridges i would normally hear about dying due to brown outs, now its PS5 Power Supplys

My boss in work used a flat head to discharge a cap the size of a pint glass in work. Damn it was loud. Was just after I said I'd go get my power resistor lol.
@therealchaydАй бұрын
For discharging PSU caps, I personally use a 60w incandescent bulb (a.k.a big resistor) attached to multimeter test probes, it's a bit less harrowing than shorting out the legs 🤣

In high school, we used to have fun with charged capacitors like that. We usually left one on the teacher's desk by "mistake" :) then watched him jump like a grasshopper while grabbing it :)

I once had a desktop PC that wouldn't turn on after lightning struck a utility pole. As expected, only the power supply unit was broken.

Yeah all new installs and consumer unit replacements have to have them now. We had one installed this summer with our CU upgrade. They can't be a bad thing and I haven't seen a difference in pricing either. Probably are put there by the big corps though lol

I'd say get a surge protector, but that would limit the business coming through to this cheeky chappy. Had a bad experience without one when my main rig got zapped and wiped out multiple components!

Hi man, could you help me, i have a big problem, i have 8 playstations 5 to diagnose those have differents failures, i can read and validate some error codes with you GUI software, thanks for that, but i perfome a NOR backup from those ps5 but when i patch it the playstation does'n turn on, by example i have one o those that turn on and turn off inmediatly but when reflash the NOR with the original .bin from the PS5 this doesn't turn on, i dont know if is a neer thermal fuse o something like that

Hey! I buy a defect ps5 that open 1 Time on 2 and shutdown by itself after 2-3 minute. Change the power supply and the metal liquid on cpu Nothing works. Sometime it wont open it beep 1 Time and I can open it 2 second after. I plug à UART tool and got some code a lot of code. Kernel panic shutdown General Power failure SSD/APU Line APU not responding blue Light flash system wont start (chek fuze f3501,F7501) thats the code that it got. CAN u help me with that please?

That PSU probably has no Transistors. Only MOSFET... Because of the lower losses of MOSFET over Transistors that is what is used. Its capable of 90% Efficiency (Techpowerup reviewd it) The ~330V are the rectified AC -> AC * square Root 2 = Rectified DC...

MOSFET's are transistors the clue is in the name.

We all know you will keep it and fix it and re-use it on your next power-supply job, this way you can sell them instead of charging the repair service, who are you trying to fool? We know your game son. :D
