Boards are built. Now for the ugly job of cleaning them. I don’t like acetone so I get my gloves and respirator on for this. View attachment 58442

I should have read the rest of the thread, I see someone caught that.

Acetone is a chemical used to make products like nail polish remover and paint remover. Your body also makes this chemical when it breaks down fat. Acetone is safe in normal amounts, but too much of it could be a problem.


Does that help you any Glen??

So conditioning the power caps for this bad boy. Things to note when doing this is to start at lower voltage and fully charge at that setting them increase over a few ranges to desired voltage and then leave at that setting a couple hours after they are charged and current is below excepted levels.

these are 35,000uf power caps so I pay extra attention to this process

 

[grapplesaw]

I have also added a custom soft start into the mains feed. With the big power caps it likes to let you know it’s powering on.

Yeh it’s a good buzz Perry

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Good? Well it's a buzz but NOT so good. You get used to it (NOT).

I use about 50/50 with the 99% Iso Alky

So, 50% IPA and 50% Acetone? I haven't tried that yet...

Yep, when using 99% purity Isopropyl

That and an acid brush and you'll have no issues

 

[J!m]

I’ll give that a try!
