Well that was better (and more concise) than any of my physics professors have ever explained that.

There has to be a short somewhere (or the power supply is bad). |

I've checked all the wiring, and I can't for the life of me figure out what happened. Nothing is shorting, all the joints look good... one tube does get 19 volts like it should and is functioning normally. The problem does not follow the tube. I'm sure someone knows off the top of their head where exactly I would need to check, because I am rather lost. I'll admit I am having a hard time following my own wiring, but hey, it was my first electronics build period. (this is PTP btw) Anyways, if anyone knows what might be going on, a little help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ethan |
