David Jacobs Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I Bought one of these POWER-TECH 20AMP POWER SUPPLY **LINK** about Eighteen months ago. In the past few weeks it smells like its burning but appears to be working still. Can anybody advise what I can do to remedy this as it cost around £40, also is it normal for these to go faulty after such a short time? Thanks David Edited By David Jacobs on 16/12/2014 16:08:37 Edited By David Jacobs on 16/12/2014 16:09:45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masher Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Have you asked Century for help first? Fan would be a good place to start then If you are competent in electronics, I'm guessing you're not, open it up and use your eyes and nose to find the source of the problem. To be honest unless you understand the circuitry it's best to be safe and bin it - not worth risking fire for the sake of 40 quid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
