I’ve tested sot 23 even a 500V/0.5W piece. Three times it started OK, but after some time (several power ON/OFF and hours) without a warning one of Q30/31 has popped and corresponding resistor totally destroyed. Furthermore two ksc2690 (k216 eq.), one fjpf2145 (c3675) blown and damages to PSU. If you don’t know what you are doing (I obviously haven’t a clue) don’t change Q30/31. Let them be 2sc3675 (or fjpf2145 - I used it for more then six years now). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerry Posted June 10, 2020 Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 So I built I fire today... This will eventually be a golden reference bias supply / doubler (because over-kill has no limits). My probe apparently touched something it shouldn’t have. Quite the spectacular fireworks. My heart is still racing 6 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzziguy Posted June 10, 2020 Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 Poubelle! 😁 One of the first words I learned when I worked in France. Thanks for the pic. Words couldn't have done it justice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoaMat Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 Attacking crowded smd boards with test probes are indeed risky business. My heart rate increases when I just think of it and sometimes my hands shake so it’s not possible… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerry Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 (edited) Remarkably, most of the components survived. The current regulator, U1, was vaporized along with the set resistors. The main fire was from the bottom through hole resistor. Next step, Poubelle! After that, I’m putting in a more robust current regulator.

Emooze Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 Made some simple clamps for the Shapeoko out of some scrap red oak. Don't have a finished picture because I don't have a flush-trim router bit to cut off the tabs. Still learning feeds and speeds so the finish is also questionable. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 You inspired me to get off my ass and work on my first real mod for the Traeger, a magnetic cutting board to mount to the top of the pellet hopper. I used the Shapeoko to machine a pocket into the back side of the cutting board as well as to make the recesses for the magnets. Then used the laser engraver to etch Traeger's logo into the top. I'll probably make a fancier version at some point but this will do for now. 18 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I get the manufacturing time down I'll make you a cutting board for your Traeger. Al, That cutting board is gorgeous, well done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
