Did somebody blown a PC by not using an AVR or UPS?

yes, daghan na kaayo PSU among gipang-repair diri nga wala kabuto ang FUSE (poor fuse), pero substantial na kaayo ang damage sa other electronic parts sa PSU.

also, i stopped using AVR's after these failed to do what it's supposed to do. dugang-dugang lang sa gasto sa kuryente kay naa man na iyahang kaugalingong power loss, paksit pa jud imo bulsa....

tinuod na boss ruel, bisan gani mga tv ug radyo, usa pa sad kaning mga high power amplifier.. hibulong lang ka ok kaayo ang fuse pero wala grabe na ug damage sa internal circuitry niya...dugang-dugang lang gyud sa gasto.

must have used crap brand avr sir..

based pud sa ako experience sir..
here sa opis..
naa nagwelding..3 machines a ta time.bc cla ato.gadali.

i asked them to stop and do it after opis hours na.coz naa mi mga pc wala avr..

well, they didn't.. in an hour..
they just busted 6PSU, 3monitors and 1 mobo.

a hell to support techinically.
( wa pa ta kaila atu sir. sayang..)

after it was reported. they stop.

we bought AVR + UPS (NOT UPS WITH AVR ) per pc

karon magwelding gihapon claduring opis hours.(kalimot na cguro cla,)

wa nay busted psu.ug monitor coz of power fluctuation and surges.

in my department, we use task 65ow gold attached to a 1000w UPS attached to a 1200w servo AVR.

sigurista!

i think i'll do that setup too butitoy. how much is the price range for the servo AVR? any brand you might recommend.

[AMD_infinium05]

Ever since. wla pa man. basically CPU's and Monitors have their own power regulators. Using an AVR helps these power regulators to deliver more stable and efficient power.

I blew up one DESPITE using an AVR. That's when I learned surge protectors are more important than AVRs. Now I just use surge protectors.

@dubioz: what's the brand and rating?

[yob]

still alive

[dubioz]

Sa AVR? Kalimot na ko.

@butitoy

Have you tried removing the UPS? kanang padagan ang unit nga wala UPS ba..AVR lang nya naa nag welding..
D ko sure bro pero mura sa UPS tingale na ang naka hatag gyud ug mas maayo nga protection sa imo PC..
