Re: Life span of typical power supply



take it apart, if you want, blow it out with air and spray it down
with alcohol until until the newspapers underneath no longer are
yellowish brown. air-borne crud building up to a heat-retaining
jacket are probably within the top 10 worst component killers. i've a
fortron server grade PS i dread doing that to -- it's as heavy as a
brick and just as compact within with componets. a 300w, oth - piece
of cake, with space to work on like an old 302 in a truck

I did look into the inside of the power supply. Didn't found much dust on top of the components....
