I picked this up cheap recently. The packing job was ridiculous - 6 or 7 tightly nested boxes. Kinda like a "blooming onion".


I've never used one before, but it looks like a very cool device.


Unfortunately, I detected the nasty stink of burnt electronics shortly after powering it up. I popped it open and discovered a fried tantalum capacitor.
So far gone I can't read the value





Anyone know what the correct value is for C824 in one of these ? The one right next to it is 4.7uF @ 25v so I figure that's a good guess.
