i think you can find a replacement.. as long as it's the same spec as the one you have now, and the same connector... (i.e. just check to see that it supplies the same amount of DC voltage, and that that it has the same current rating...)
usuallly the supply has something that says "Output...
ok.. second harmonic.. i wasn't sure.. that's why i said ..it [might] be a harmonic of 60Hz.. which you just confirmed that 120 actuall is the fundamental though.. cause of the way the shit deforms.....
also, i thought i read 120Vrms, but i was wrong... nvm
OP:
if it's annoying you.. or if it still bothers you.. go ahead and get it replaced again.. just don't be surprised if the 3rd supply still makes noise..
the OP hasn't described if the sound is loud or low...
like i said.. if it's a low sound.. then it's probably fine.. if it's loud.. like annoying loud it's probably a problem and should be replaced...
i'm just saying..a very low whine is ok... that's it that's all
human range is from 20Hz - 20KHz.. i thought it was 300Hz to 20KHz.. my bad.. so you can hear the 60 Hz from the outlet.. if you're young..
I think the other poster got mixed up.. the voltage coming out of the wall is 120Vrms, while the frequency is 60Hz.. so it would be a 60Hz sound...
it probably is a switching supply since they are more efficient actually.. i'm sure they would use that in a laptop supply more so than a basic rectifier PLus LDO regulator
They ALL whine to a certain extent.. if it's not that loud it's fine... sometimes the vibration is so subtle you can't hear it.. but if you can hear it.. it doesn't mean it's fucked up.. do me a favor and walk around a power station and you'll hear loads of vibration from all the transformers...
again.. it depends how loud it is... if the room needs to be completely quiet to even hear it.. it's probably ok.. i've seen that with many laptop supplies as well as PSP supplies.
WOW.. capacitors squealing? that's something hahah... are you sure it was a cap? normally they just pop, or...
Wrong... Please know what you're talking about before you post.. don't give people incorrect information
Anyway...
actually.. it's normal for AC adapters to whine...
if it's very loud.. it's probably a problem.. but if it's low.. like you have to put your ear up to it to hear it, or the room...
HAHAHAHAA i once had 3 infractions in one day. with no BAN...
I SLIPPED BY I SLIPPED BY..
it's probably not a good idea to rub this in your face is it?? :eek::eek::eek::eek:
i agree.. i have fifa 08.. and played the PES demo... i don't see what the hoopla is over PES...
i will add.. that fifa 08 is a HUGE step forward from fifa 07..
So.. i've uploaded some cool videos of me playing fifa 08 to EA>.
my question is.. how the hell do i view them? is there a website? i've tried the ea sports website.. i can't find anything...
thanks
i've had my wii since last december.. i played it when i first got it.. then i didn't play over the summer (because i was away for the summer)
i started playing it again because of MP3.. but now i beat it.. so my wii will sit around till smash brothers comes out.. in the mean time.. my...
disc changer just screams expensive to me (and lazy.. but i'll not get into that)... i don't want to pay more just to have a disc changer.. just seems lame to me.. not that hard to get up and change a game really..
if it were an optional add on.. sure.. but not right out of the box..
as for...
