Falcon PSU bridge recitifier

Post by pixelpusher »

Hi folks,

I was looking into replacing the S1NB60 rectifier on the Falcon PSU and looking at the lastUpgrade Falcon PSU page (and the space problems pointed out there), I have only a Vishay 2W10G-E4/51 in my toolbox, that would fit.

Anyone having tried a different type of recitifier successfully on that PSU?

The spec looks OK. Though be careful of the pinouts as its a odd one on the PSU.

There seems to be some element in him enjoying being shocked - if you count the repeated incidents in his videos ... .-)
