    A battery bombed SE stored in a garage for years

    …..why it's not properly pumping….. Ive noticed on my board melting the old tin, corroded with with capacitors electrolite/ battery gunk needs fresh tin to get flowing. Adding some flux helps also… Solder litze does also work real well.

    Macintosh SE or SE/30 Fan Bracket

    Now looking at a measured 47C on the 68030, fully enclosed CLII idle, light use….the 70C when on load (google) seems viable. Flybacks+ other heatsources-Plastic ABS melting….say from 150C, cooling is no option, its a must! 🍀

    These people create all kinds of custom heatpipe solutions….I dont own a SE30, so cant see what the options are. It must be possible to solve this matter in a more modern fasion….😇

    Macintosh SE or SE/30 Fan Bracket

    Hi, did not see any heatsink for the 68030 SE on Google. Still fansound can be less and the processor can be cooler, when combined with a heatsink. cool is good, right? 🍀
