Re: Unsafe PSUs
I would like to see something like that,
as of now I know of a shop where they have the psu's actually out of the boxes, and whenever I am there looking at PSU's, people and salesmen around me get really confused and nervous when they see me looking through a crack in the PSU at some cockeyed angle with a flashlight pointed in the fan grill and scream "Damn this POS had fuhjjyo's in it!"
one time I was asked by a salesman "Can I help you with anything?"
I responded "I just want a PSU which doesn't explode"
Then he pointed me to some L&C's and Allied's
to which I exclaimed "THOSE BLOW UP!"
to which he told me "I've been running an L&C for a year, they are great supplies"
I commented "I hope you have good house insurance and a fire extinguisher if you have that plugged in when your away"
well 2 months later, that guy tracked me down in the store when I was buying some memory and told me that his L&C did blow up. (But then again, for Deer based psu's, confusious once say, "Deer PSU's which is used only explode if they should exist"
At this point I would like to comment that I knew the fellow responsible for drawing out the final production schematics for that PCB of deer psu's and that those cursed schematics exploded in a spectacular array of colors burning his house to the ground (but not hurting anyone too badly), but that is untrue, a lie, and would certainly make me feel better after replacing so many of those damn pieces of garbage.
whoops let my bad side escape for a moment back there- sorry! =)

and if you search the forum the Hiper type-r has the Fuhjjyu (sp) caps that they really hate (because the formula for the electrolyte was stolen by espionage, and they didn't include an anti-corrosive, so they, err, tend to leak...)
