Re: Bye Bye Standby - failures?

[Rob Iles <rob.iles@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I, too, have some failed sockets (only 4Amp, no 13Amp, though this may be
a=
n
anomaly).

Before anyone shouts - - I *do not* work for BBS/Enistic!! :-) (I did
contract work for them on previous occasions)

Yes, I used to share an office with them, and did request failed units to
see if I could diagnose the issue out of *personal* interest, as I spent a
lot of time on the BBS Forum.

I no longer share an office, and no longer participate on the forum,
concentrating instead on my own work.

IIRC, the "swap out service" was 'send a dead one back with =A35,
and it wi=
ll
be replaced' - - though I'm not sure if that's still on offer.

I'd like to build up a stock of spares, but can't find anyone who has
them!!!

Do either of you, or anyone else, know where to get them? (Ironically, I'm
still a reseller, but can't get stock of any sockets)

Again, IIRC, the fault (diagnosed buy a user, not me) is a capacitor - -
though I don't know which, or how easy it would be to replace.

My =A30.02,

Rob
