Title: Ozone-y Power Supply
Post by: DiskChris on June 05, 2016, 03:51:38 PM
So I just plugged a 5.25 floppy (which I probably should've tested somewhere else first) into my Amiga and within a few seconds smelled that toasty ozone smell coming from the power supply, so I quickly switched off the machine, which I'm desperately hoping isn't fried...

Anyway, assuming the power supply is toast and probably too dangerous to even test with, what should I replace it with? I could get an A2000 power supply off ebay, but I was thinking about trying to put in an ATX using one of those converters, but what about size? Any good PSU that would easily fit in the case, I don't really want to have to mess around modding stuff...

Send your PSU to Acill. Maybe Gunny can repair?
