Default Hello and help

FFS can't you see 1.6A is the max primary side amp rating ??

Right next to the 100-240V spec ??

With a 100VAC supply ( in Japan ) the rms amps is 1.6A at full load.

Allow for a PF of 0.5 = 80 watts input to a 65W psu.

Spot ****ing on.




You are, of course, right regarding the current being 'primary. It would
be reassuring to me to actually have a full output voltage/current spec,
given the vagaries of the ads.


** Most product advertising is deliberately vague, cos doing that benefits the seller. Being vague circumvents being sued.

Laws against misleading advertising are weak and rarely enforced cos the only folk with enough financial reason use them are other product advertisers.

But most of them fear the backlash from doing so cos it will likely open a Pandora's Box of cross actions against them.

Few if any are squeaky clean themselves.

Such is the honour among thieves.

Hope you can get to the pharmacy what with all those fires and things.
Once the meds kick in hopefully you can return to being a less
unpleasant person.
