I wired it exactly like Breaktru's evercool copper mod. PTR08100WVD regulator, 100uf 10v Tantalum capacitors, 240 Ohm resister, 200 ohm trimmer. Replaced the blown cap, and it turned on, but put out a straight 7.2v, no adjustments. Replaced the trimmer, still no adjustment. I'm assuming the PTR08100WVD is blown at this point. Mostly I just wanted any newbies out there to be able to avoid doing what I did.
The best way to get people to understand what issues you're dealing with is to provide as mush information as possible... Pictures, part numbers of components and diagrams of how you wired up a components make all the difference in the world. Anything less can make for a frustrating guessing game.
I'll get you the pic of the bottom as soon as I get home. Does that mean I'm running power BACKWARDS through the chip? No wonder it's acting wonky. I'm surprised I'm getting power at all. Thanx for the quick reply, Dave, and I'll post pics EVERY time I have a failure from now on.
I wanted too ask if it is ok too put the caps straight on the okr like dena- how too pdf shows or is that a older way of doing I have finely been able too break away too do little work on some thanks
