Megawatt Dissection & Notes
This is "Jim In Denver's" unit. Circuit board fuse found to be "good" One 330 uf cap has a domed top. My ESR tester located far far away. Bridge rectifier tested good Bi-polar transistors: One s...

Fanz? We gotta the fanz!
Thanks Jim. I would have overlooked this until the bench test. It may well be the fan -control circuit- has been well and truly beaten to a pulp. Time to start thinking about a thermistor mounted against the large toroid choke. I figure this is going to be another -90 Day Wonder- wondering after 90-days when the parts are going to arrive.
At least the BORG is alive and well. Twin Megas offer a lot of potential. They sang 88 amps when the power came back. 0600 right on the dot. I'll bet they shut everything down and washed down towers, conductors, and insulators at the 11.4 megawatt generation plant.
