    Noise on the line

    Thank you for your reply. As I am dealing with AC does it mean that a filter has to go to both the pos and neg supplies to the equipment? I assume the way to set this up is to cut into the cable put in a box with the two filters in it. I have seen some equipment come with magnets that fit...

    Noise on the line

    I have a power line adapter (PLA) which is not passing through the Ip connection at the speed it is arriving at the BT Hub. It comes in at 55mbps and a speed test on the computer shows it is running at 28mpbs. I have discovered that a number of essential items such as a burglar alarm are...

    Heated Jacket not working

    I have discovered that the jack's socket in the Jacket is faulty and have asked the manufacturer to send me a replacement. If it does not work after changing the socket I will comment on your much appreciated replies. Thank you.

    Heated Jacket not working

    I have a heated jacket that is powered by a li-polymer battery. The battery has a small board in it, probably to prevent over charging and give display readings to a built in LED. The battery is 7.4v /4400mAh The mains charger I am using outputs 9v dc 1A. I have put a volt meter on the...

    Peltier heaters and coolers

    I have a 30 litre cooler box. It is not highly insulated. It is the type with a handle and thick plastic walls for carrying food for a picnic. I want to use it for bean fermentation. This means that the temperature has to be raised to 40C at the start and then after 20 hours gradually reduced...

    Transformer smoked

    I will have to now buy a few extras and see how it goes. I didn't expect to be buying a light bulb as a fuse but it is a good idea as are the other comments. Thanks. I will report back if I have further problems.

    Transformer smoked

    If you look at reply #9 and 10# above you will something I find very strange. No continuity between +- but continuity between each cable and the chassis of the mist maker. How is that possible?

    Transformer smoked

    The ohm reading shows 1 when I connect the + and - cables to the volt meter. There is no continuity between + and - cables using 1.5v continuity tester.

    Transformer smoked

    Is this an indication that the mister is poorly wired? I connected the pos of a 1.5v continuity tester to either the + or - power cable of the mister, and the neg to the casing of the mist maker. In both variations there is continuity.

    Transformer smoked

    How do I measure the voltage supply when the mist maker is connected to the transformer? Do I do it by measuring the neg and pos output with the volt meter in parallel with the mist maker? I assume I should not try to connect the meter in serial with the mister. What is the way to protect the...

    Transformer smoked

    I bought an AC 240v input /Output 24v 2A DC. Connected a fountain mist maker (24v 19w). They produce their effect with ultrasonic sound. The transformer's led came on, the mister worked and then I saw smoke coming from the transformer and there was a strong smell from the transformer. I...
