    Lisa 2/10 230V PSU jumper settings

    Could anyone please confirm for me the jumper settings for 230V for a DataPower 15A0202-000,001 power supply? I bought the Lisa in this configuration in the UK, but it had suffered a blown fuse, a vaporised trace underneath the PSU board and cracked RIFAs. Attached is a top-down view of the...

    Hi, I'm recapping my LCII PSU by Astec. I ordered the Astec recap kit from Console5. The big cap on my board is a 180µf 400v nichicon while the one they sent me is a 220µf 400v. I know with voltage I can go higher but what about micro farads? Not sure how to test the old one to see if it even...
