Hi All,
A while ago I received a non-special HeNe tube and brick PSU. All seemed to work fine. Tube sometimes didn't want to start but it was old and not that much of a surprise. Recently, however, I plugged it into a poorly wired socket which tripped out the house power circuits and I'm pretty sure popped the fuse in the wall plug, (UK 230VAC, fused plug). After replacing the fuse in the plug, the tube no longer fired up.
My question is; is there an internal fuse in the PSU itself and is it worth me opening it up to replace or simply replace the PSU?
I hope the attached photo shows the PSU clearly enough. It's the only photo I have at the minute.
I'd like to get this running to allow me to consider building an Argon alignment jig.
Thanks all,
M
