We got a cheap 2000W power supply designed for mining... could it possibly live up to it's output? Also seriously don't do anything we did in this video, playing with power supplies is a very bad unless your name is Mehdi.

Watch what happens when you put a toaster meant for 120v on 240v. The issue isn't necessarily that 240v is dangerous (though technically it is) but that this is thorough misuse of cabling which creates an inherent feeling of risk since it can overheat, melt, catch fire, short, etc etc.

The "Warnung" is the actual German word for "warning." You can tell it's meant to be one of those multi-language labels because of the Spanish "peligro" below it and the French "attention" to the lower-left. The issue is they didn't put a single other German word on it.

@Linus Tech Tips - You would be much saver when fixing a German / Korean style (recessed earthed) outlet to the output of your modified cable , because Germany has 230 Volts ( + 16 Amps) & there are plenty o IEC computer power supply cables for German / Korean outlets ... the 2x 110 Volts in Canada / USA are no problem at all because the German plug / outlet is not polarized anyway & some regions use 2x 110 Volts with German style outlets (50 or 60 Hz) ... AND don't forget to crimp the fine strands of the flex ! Also the German / Koren system does not let you touch live contacts (in opposite to the literally shocking Canada / USA system) ... Trust me I know what I tell you , I'm a German & I did serval plugs / outlets my self & even connected a 3 phase stove ( 400 Volts) without ANY incidents over the years

yes, never mix 120/240 stuff, years ago we had an "electrician" hired by the property management who came in and said, oh, that 240 outlet in your living room, I can replace it with a 120 outlet so you can use a smaller air conditioner. He changed the outlet, didn't mention he wired it wrong, and he "borrowed" our bedroom AC unit (a $700 Friedrich 12000BTU unit that worked flawlessly and had a digital display, remote, all sorts of nice features) to test it and promptly let the smoke out. Of course they fired him over this, but offered to replace the AC unit. When the property manager showed up all smiles with a 5000BTU $98 Walmart unit thinking that was a perfectly adequate replacement, we filed that away and when it came time, chose not to renew our lease.

The probable reason the PSU case is getting hot: The internal transformer works at high frequency above 20,000 HZ and is working way above it's Ampereage capacity, as a result, it's High Frequency magnetic field expands beyond it's physical core structure, as a result, the AC magnetic fields bombard the external steel case, heating it like an induction cooker. I've seen the same phenomenon when a high frequency transformer is overdriven. The more you know. A few things to look for: The extension cord modified for 240 volt: I see a fire risk because the indicator light on the business end is now dissipating 4x the power. they are neon lamps with a series resistor. Unplug when not in use.

I think the 3.3V and 5V rails together are not supposed to exceed a combined 150 watts and that is why they are stuck together in the table. It is a quirk of how some multi-rail power supplies are designed, usually because there is a tap on a secondary winding of the transformer that causes this where if they were separate secondary windings altogether it would not have that limitation. That leaves 150 + 1800 + 6 + 10 = 1966 watts total which is close enough. They may have just mislabeled the 12v rail.

@KABAKOKSEK Often times consumer PSUs are built to offer options on how you want to distribute the total wattage.

This means that the beefiest components (AC side) can be built to lower spec, which lowers cost.

This in essence is a problem for all older type of devices like washing machines and frigdes that used pretty simple 3-phase motors to drive them. Difference between 60hz and 50hz is about 20% so it basically means that your fridge/washing machine either runs too fast and can be damaged because of 20% boost (if it runs on 60hz but was designed on 50hz). Or the other way it runs 20% slower and basically is less powerful in comparison to what is should be.

Even easier yet, as well as more flexible, would just be to buy a North American 240 V extension cord and put their 240 V connector directly on the IEC cord, so you'd still have just one plug to replace and it would be utterly clear (because of the short cable length) that the IEC cable was 240 V.

Sorry just a correction on the video... The MOV section is totally wrong, although the silverstone showed a MOV. The parts in the "2000w psu" are actually NTC parts, more specifically ICL devices (inrush current limiters), completely different from MOV parts. They are resistors that are temperature sensitive, helping to reducethe initial rush of current (due to charging capacitors). This initial high current load causes them to heat up and therefore lower their resistance making their effect on the circuit more irrelevant due to lower resistance at higher temperatures.

You need to ensure the Gnd lead is a little longer than the other two. This ensures that is the cable is pulled out the GND wire will disconnect from it's plug last.

Pretty sure they also reversed their polarity, and probably murdered the copper cabling with those wire snips when they were stripping it. If you are going to rewire a plug, definitely don't refer to this video for reference. 😂

@@Curt_Sampson It somewhat depends, industrial locations (where they shoot) don't use things like Ufer grounding and I think they in particular have multiple voltages and 2 and 3 phase outlets.

@@smalltime0 This is my point. If you're using two conductors to connect to 2-phase power (such as North American residential 240 V), there is no "polarity": both conductors are "hot." (I don't know what "Ufer" grounding is, but polarity is about hot vs. neutral, not about ground, which is a completely separate thing.)

8:15 NTC thermistors is used for inrush-current limiting. When the capacitors on the input side of the PSU are fully empty and the NTC is cool to the touch the NTC thermistor adds resistance to the AC circuit to gradually charge up the capacitors over a longer period of time instead of trying to charge them up very quickly all at once. As power starts to flow through the NTC thermistor it begins to heat up and the negative temperature coefficient (NTC) means as it heats up the resistance gets lower making the NTC thermistor look more like a direct wire in circuit instead of a resistor. So it might start at like 18 or 20 ohms but as it warms up it changes to less than 1 ohm over a fairly short period of time. It basically makes sure you don't blow the mains breaker when you first plug in the PSU...

It's a little frustrating that LTT has very high demands for hiring people in LAB, but these people end up knowing their job poorly. None of the people in the video could find out the markings of the mosfets and calculate the maximum available current, no one opened the datasheet for the transformer and сheck its maximum power.

As you are really knowledgeable about physics could you tell me how would one go around calculating V,I,R when two of these are given both in series and parallel. It would really help if you could tell me how to for example mathematically separate currents at the two resistors in parallel to compute their values when V and R are given. I have a test on Tuesday and would really appreciate the help. All 6 scenarios for series and parallel.
