Hi Folks,
I've just installed the 80-30 board (filter left to go), and in making
the final current and voltage checks, I was unsure if one reading was
too high. If the current draw after the LED times out is between 34 and
37 ma, good. If it's much higher than that, it could indicate a short.
How much higher?
I got a reading of about 38.9 ma. The various voltage checks all were
fine, between 4.8 and 5 vdc. So I presume those are OK. It's the current
measurement that I'm a bit concerned about.
Any thoughts, other than I need to chill? ;-)
With best regards,
Pete
