Hello all.
I am new to the CNC community. I recently purchased the Chinese 80W laser and (of course) the power supply unit (PSU) faulted. Its dead now and I contacted the manufacturer and they have shipped me a new PSU. I know that I am not the first person to have PSU problems with the Chinese CO2 laser PSU's. My question to the community is:
Has anyone been able to find a reasonable solution to the faulty PSU's?
Has anyone thought about an placing an inline fuse that is inline from the PSU to the laser tube?
I am not an electrician, nor do I fully comprehend what is required in order to install a high voltage fuse. My thought process is to find a way to protect the PSU from return overcharge (if that makes any sense)
Thank you to any who answer my questions and or are able to provide some guidance.
