Hi everybody,

I just opened my HVPS in order to do the resistance mods and I found some white stuff in there.

What could that be?

Anybody?

Regards,

Ron.

It is harmless, some rubber from bricking in the front of the device

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the quick aswer. I checked and it was some white powder (like plaster dust)

Now that I'm here. I'm looking for an alternative for the ohmite 2W ceramic resistors to replace the 6 560k carbon resistors but they are not available in stock in europe. From mouser they ask me more than 20 euros shipping for thes 6 resistors Sad

Farnell doesn't have them eighter in euro stock eighter.

Any alternatives are welcome.

Regards,

Ron.
