Description: By popular demand!!!The RL Drake AC-4 Power Supply Restoration Component Kit is finally here! A new cost effective approach to rebuilding the power supply in an easy component by component replacement. The kit includes all electrolytic capacitors, rectifier diodes and resistors. No more gutting the entire power supply to add a big circuit board, adding terminal strips, or extending transformer leads.No more cutting open those pre EPA era vintage capacitors. Don't expose yourself or your family to potentially unregulated and dangerous chemicals from 50+ years ago by cutting the cans open. It isn't worth the health risk. You just replace component for component, one at a time. The Capacitor Circuit boards are professionally designed, developed and produced in an actual factory, with 2oz copper and meet the IPC-2221B Specifications. The multi-page full color Installation Guide will be available to download for free on my W8AOR site. I will provide the the link to download in the kit. Installation NOTE: Due to how Drake used chassis slotted twist tab capacitors, you will need to drill two holes to mount the Multi-Cap and Uni-Cap boards for C1, C2(optional), and C4. This will require a 1/8" drill bit. Full instructions are in the included installation guide. C1 and C4 were chassis slotted, with the twist tabs were soldered to the chassis. You will need a soldering iron/gun hot enough to melt solder at the chassis. You can find inexpensive soldering stations on eBay and Amazon like the 862D (sold under many brand names) that work very well. Let me know if you have another application that you would like a kit built for a to assemble components for you to make you a kit for your project.I am constantly expanding the applications and continuing to build the options for vintage electronics enthusiast.

These units have lethal voltages inside. CAUTION!Buyer takes full responsibility for their own safety and ensuring they have the skillsets to install the kit.Scotty's Sled Shed LLC is NOT RESPONSIBLE for any injuries, or damage you incur installing this kit.Buyer takes full responsibility for themselves. The installation guide is a guide. You choose to use the tips or not. Your choice. An experienced technician may find 10 other ways that is better than the guide and there is nothing wrong with it. I reserve the right to substitute components. Please understand I have to navigate supply chain issues as well. Sometimes a blue resistor in the pic is NLA and I have to get black or grey resistors, same with capacitors. These parts are aftermarket. NOT OEM. If you find an issue with the components, please, please reach out to me so I can help resolve the issue. I do not mark the resistors. I expect you to either know how to read resistor codes and/or use an ohm meter to validate you did install the 100k ohm resistor instead of the 1K ohm resistor.Copyright 2023 Scotty's Sled Shed LLC.
