Title: EII Power Supply Replacement: MeanWell T-60 C vs. RT-65 C Post by: Elmbeatz on March 19, 2015, 05:11:40 AM Hi Freaks!
Unfortunately the MeanWell T-60 C is discontinued. As I have successfully replaced one of my EII's power supply with it, I'd like to do the same with my other EII's. Still - there's a similar MeanWell Power Supply, which might also fit the bill: The RT-65 C. I'm no tech, so I'd like to know if the RT-65 C is a valid alternative to the T-60 C. The only differences in specs seem to be the wattage (62,5W on the T-60 C; 65,5W on the RT-65 C) as well as the Amperes on the 15V DC output (2A on the T-60 C; 2,2A on the RT-65 C) Any opinions on this? Greatly appreciated, Elm. Title: Re: EII Power Supply Replacement: MeanWell T-60 C vs. RT-65 C Post by: Elmbeatz on March 23, 2015, 05:04:11 AM Bump.
Anyone? I have this thing in front of me right now. Title: Re: EII Power Supply Replacement: MeanWell T-60 C vs. RT-65 C Post by: Elmbeatz on March 30, 2015, 03:49:12 AM Hi!
Update: A tech friend of mine said that the RT-65 C can be seen as an adequate alternative to the T-60 C for the EII. So, it should work well. Greetz, Elm. Title: Re: EII Power Supply Replacement: MeanWell T-60 C vs. RT-65 C Post by: ahaigh01 on April 27, 2015, 11:06:14 AM Hi Elmbeatz!
Did you to the replacements yourself and was it easy to do? I suspect my PSU has gone bad. The EII is crashing and not working correctly. I have ordered a T-60 C, but I don't really want to do the replacement myself and may look for a local tech to do it. Thanks for any info.

It's super easy. Check out this thread: http://eiiiforum.com/index.php?topic=370.0 (http://eiiiforum.com/index.php?topic=370.0) and you know which cables have to be connected to the corresponding ports of the powersupply. One thing - there's a trimmer on the powersupply to adjust the 5 volt rail. make sure to adjust it right. |
