She must have known a good thing when she saw it, (to take some time out from a overseas tour to experience some of the 'Real America'). Good man.

I went to a electronics store here to get the capacitors, a 35v 1500uf & two 25v 680uf, they didn't have any..... Weird.
They can be bought off TradeMe (our eBay) , it works out to be $4 each with postage.... And two sales..

There's another shop I will try tomorrow, or its a search thru my old CRT boards etc to find some, its a good time to scrap some of them down anyway.


The Invertor heatpump gave up...
750 gms of Brass. NZ$2.75
3000gms of Copper domestic. NZ$14.50
9000gms of Ali/Copper radiators == NZ$24.50
And a 20kg fridge compressor. & a fan motor encased in resin. NZ$11.50



A grand total of NZ$53.25. Not bad for free $$$

The light gauge sheet metal will pay for dumping the plastic....
There was a small circuit board and no heatsink at all. Most of them have a 1kg+ heatsink, which can be sold on 'TradeMe' for good $$
I was quite surprised to find there was not one at all. It was a bigger unit than normal and a Fujitsu brand name.
