The simplicity of the kit really helps

It's always better than something ultra complicated, requiring a PhD in electronics...
Re: It's GDEMU time
A new PSU for my DC is on the purchase list this month.
Has it had any effect on screen interference like the Saturn one did?

If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Re: It's GDEMU time
To be fair to the original DC PSU, it was running just fine, so no interference at all, but I wanted to replace it from a heat perspective as the GD-EMU means you don't need 12v any more.PhilC wrote: Mon Jan 15, 2024 9:37 am A new PSU for my DC is on the purchase list this month.

I had put a load over the 12v line, but it just seemed a bit janky to me, hence why I got the PSU upgrade in the end.
