How come there is no thread on the RealityCheck?

Exlibris, obvious question then is what did you have done. Is it a standard power supply that can just be swapped?

I had a linear power supply custom made from individual parts.
All I really know is that I now have a two-box unit and that there are some relatively big transformers and new capacitors in the boxes.

Now that I know that it works great I will ask the technician:

1. to try and explain to me -exactly- what he did.
2. if he would do anything different if he had to do it over again.
3. is there anything more that could be done.

Exlibris- If you could ask your technician what amperage
draw is on the +5 and +12V rails, Tbg and others could
look for off the shelf linears for their RCs.

Aproximately 1.5 amps per rail.
Make sure to look at the unit first to see what you are getting into. There a *lots* of conections to deal with.
Off the shelf linears are one not the best approach because the power supply should be decoupled within the unit itself.

Exlibris- appreciate the info. It's very easy to place some
caps inside the unit to decouple an off the shelf linear like the Condors which are available at these rating. I've seen the stock supply and realize there are additional connections. The connectors are readily available.
