/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>686690
>I..I can't power it with simple domestic 1 phase power can I ?

nope.avi

>>686694
What should I do with it ?
Just salvage the components inside ?
I have the feeling this is worth more than 20 dollars.
Would it be heresy to tear it down and reuse everything for different projects ?

>>686690
sure it's 3 phase?
hard to tell from the picture.
colour is just to do with the voltage

What you need to look for is a single phase to 3 phase converter.

Yes they exist, but you'll need 220+ volts to run it. And then there's the cost.

You're better off selling it and getting a new power supply.

>>686704
I'm starting to wonder because the transformers inside don't have those typical 3 coils that 3 phase power transformers *should* have ?
Because I do have access to 440 volts in my laundry but the idea of having to move this thing down there ...

>>686709
well take a look at the plug?
how many pins?

If any electricity guru could certify me this is telling me I can run it on either 230v or 440volts ?

>>686694
Can with electric motors.

Good old delta wiring.

>>686711
forgot pics

>>686710
Picture of the plug.
Unless something isn't wired inside, it really is 3 phase power isn't it ?

>>686713
>>686714
W..wait a minute.
Now I'm completely lost.
I just noticed this hidden behind a bolted steel sheet.
So it DOES work on 220 volts ?
What is the huge ass plug for then ?

>>686714

yea,that is 3phase,don't you have 3 phase outlets at home ?

>>686712
I hope you realize there's a difference between a motor and a power supply

>>686721
>>686714
well according to fug...
up to 1400W nominal power: 230 V ±10% 47 Hz to 53 Hz
for 2800W and 4200W: 400 V ±10% 47 Hz to 53 Hz, two-phase
for 7000W and higher 400 V ±10% 47 Hz to 53 Hz, three-phase
i guess if its rated 230v at single phase then perhaps someone just stuck a 3phase ceeform on it because thats all they had?
need a look inside to confirm then, see whats wired up

It was nice of him to sell you the trolley cheap, you should write him a nice letter to say thank you. Don't send an email, it's too impersonal.

>>686735
That's totally what I'm going to do.
The man was very nice and mannered, albeit his kids acted like asylum patients.
>>686732
I think I can live with 1400 watts of nominal power.
What pins should I be wiring on this pic >>686714 ?
I found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_and_multiphase_power_plugs_and_sockets
So If I'm assuming right, the big pin is earth and the two next to them counter clock wise are neutral and hot ?
God I'm scared about powering this thing.

>>686741
yeah i don't think the list is to tell you if you wire it up this way you get this power, its saying if your unit can supply this much power (they have many different designs) it needs to be connected like this.

anyway as the plate you posted says 230v and a big red 3phase plug is usually around the 400v per phase mark, consider that the voltage between two 415v phases is 230v.
assuming you love somewhere with 230v supplies and

ASSUMING YOU LOOK INSIDE HOW ITS WIRED TO CONFIRM FIRST

i would remove the plug (should be easy to do non-destructively) and see if it is wired between two phase pins, and if so you can probably just whap a normal plug on it and away you go (bear in mind the current rating is 16A, i don't know where you live i don't know the ratings so be careful, if you get it to turn on at least then you can wire up a 16a blue ceeform socket or something to your main house electrical panel for actual use)

but you need to see where the wires in the plug goes first.

>>686709

Holy flying cow, that transformer is humongous.

>>686747
> I would remove the plug
Why the fuck didn't I think about this. Seriously, why ?
So apparently it's two phase only.
So if color codes mean anything here, the two blacks are the phases, blue is neutral and watermelon is earth.
I'm going to power it with phase L1.
Brb, hope I don't die in the process.

>>686764
Take a video

>this entire thread
I have nothing useful to say but I'm seriously fucking interested in how it all turns out. Keep us updated, OP.

To me it seems like you bought some German dude's leftover industrial power supply that he brought from Germany then shuffled off to you when he realized that the plug wouldn't work.

Seems to sum its own situation up quite well.

Godspeed OP.

AAAHHHHhhh !!!!
MY FUCKING GOD !
It... kinda works.... not ?
There is no voltage on the output terminals and the voltage and amp indicators don't light up...
BUT THAT FUCKING NOISE
I thought It was going to explode.
I woke up my girlfriend who almost pissed herself in the bed.
It started with the loudest clunkiest whomp - probably some kind of relay - I ever heard and then the 50hz mains transformer kicked in and that fucking fan inside gradually started turning at >9000 rpm
The hum from the transformer alone is scary.
I guess I'll have to play with it tomorrow, it's already 2am here and my neighbors aren't going to support this din.
Glad I didn't die... I suppose.

>>686788
>kinda works

Did you apply power to both phase inputs?

That thing is a behemoth. Wish you well OP. Please don't die. Curious about how it turns out.

>Lugging things on public transportation

I know your pain, OP. You did well.

>>686799
No, just one.
Should I apply power to both phases ?
I was in the idea this should work on one, plus two phases means it would be expecting 400v ?
Meh, I think I'm going to call the guy again and ask him where how and why he was using this beast.

>>686806
Some parts of it may work off one phase and other parts may work off the other so that could explain why it only partly worked.

If its has two transformers wired between actives and the neutral you may be in luck but it they are wired between phases your going to have issues.

>>686811
Should I try powering only the other phase ?
See if something happens ?

>>686690
>too much green text makes me angerfied

>>686788
No video? OP pls
Glad to hear you didn't die though

>>686825
>Should I try powering only the other phase ?
>See if something happens ?
No. You should try determining how it should be connected properly. Then do that and only that.

>>686690
am jelly
you have a monster power supply there anon.

after reading thread I'm with
>>686811

after looking how the plug is wired, I agree that it needs two phases.

the internal wiring is next, how the transformers are wired will determine which way you go.

it may be simple or not, but it should be do-able.

damn! you will end up with one hella power supply

>>686690
Whatever that is, I want one.

>>686825
The best thing to do is work out how the transformers are actually wired. If they are phase to phase you may have to see if there are suitable voltage taps and/or primary winding configurations to convert it to single phase. If they are phase to neutral *only* you should be good to just bridge the two actives. You will need a suitably rated power point to run it. This may or may not be a thing in your country. We have 240v 20amp single phase plugs here but they are rare.

>>686916
>>686941
>yeah, post back after experimenting and writing notes OP

Hey op where did you learn electronics?any tips?

if OP visits Fug's website, he can see that power supplies below 5000W tend to be double-phase, but 7000W or more tend to be 3-phase: http://www.fug-elektronik.de/webdir/2/download_e.htm

the higher wattage power supplies prob need 3-phase so they dont overwhelm the line, and blow a fuse. but, ultimately, no matter how many phases are used, you end up with a DC voltage, so it's likely possible to do some minor rewiring to get it to work in a home. Maybe OP can ask for a schematic. When I needed a schematic for my power supply, I emailed the company and they sent it immediately.

>>687239
Op here,
So I've already contacted Fug and asked for a circuit diagram but they haven't responded yet.
I've also contacted the seller and , behold, he told me he already had the same symptoms but thought it way because he didn't know how to use it...
Maybe he lied maybe he didn't...

So obviously this has a problem somewhere and it make the whole thing even more fun to me.

I've tried powering the other phase alone and the two phases with the same wiring and nothing different happened (I was quite suspecting something could blow up with both phases wired together but I guess I'm lucky).
I cannot tell without the schematics but there seems to be a nice little trick with that loud relay I'm hearing at startup : when only one phase is powered it splits power to both transformers from one single cable.
I've started probing everywhere with my multimeter. There are test points on the controller board and every voltage seems okay. I read +14.8 volts on the 15 volt rail and about -14.2 at the negative 15 volt rail. I guess those 0.8 volts aren't the problem so I'm going to systematically probe EVERYTHING from mains to output terminals.
Maybe my scope could help here too.
There are some electrolytic caps that could have dried up thus making the power ripple.

I'll keep you guys updated, this started quite frustrating but it's gently starting to get quite enjoyable.

>>686788
Congrats, op, you bought a nuclear spaceship engine.

Also
>fug
Why did I laugh

>>686690

I don't know shit about electronics but that was a good story

>>686721

Yup, seems to be the controller board not supplying voltage to other regions of the power supply.
I can power up the volt and amp meters with my other p.s. but, of course, no voltage.


On the other side, I can imagine how they came up with the name.

people that due shit like this instead of selling it to a non retard that cna use it make me sick, dont ruin something just because you do not have the skills or knowledge to use it, someone will use it and would love to have it, think before you act.

My god this is monstrous. Also I believe a single-phase solution must be had, its not really an issue for such a large thing to have have different wirings and such.

>>686690

>>686788

>>687571

there is some huge relay to avoid blowing your fuses upon startup. Oh btw be careful with the caps, mine has a whole bank of them. Don't have the specs of the capacitor bank but I believe we calculated that it was enough to kill multiple people in one go.

>>687569
should be no problem, I have a way bigger one. 0-250 volt DC @ 10 amps and that monstrosity runs on a single phase with a regular plug

>>687571
slight error here, I just checked and it it is 10A, not 20A.

pic related, my baby

hmmm caps

good luck getting yours running OP

>>687272
>So obviously this has a problem somewhere and it make the whole thing even more fun to me.
I like your attitude OP. Good luck!

Subtle bump

>What the fuck did I just buy /diy/ ?

A story OP. You bought yourself a fantastic story to relay to a bunch of bored dorks on the internet. I hope it turns out well.

The 3 phase is just to get more power. It should run fine on 1 phase. I'm sure it works like any other power supply - transformer->rectifier->voltage regulator.

don't fuck with high power stuff when your on your own, you should have someone far enough away not to get bitten when it goes wrong but close enough to hear your corpse slump to the ground or notice the lights dim.

I don't know how comfortable i feel about you building something xray related when you don't even know not to be close to high power things when they are on...

It wasn't *on* I got shocked by the charge left in the dc multiplier caps that were *supposed* to be discarged. My /diy/ bleeder resistor failed open and I didn't notice.
I guess It jumped to the earth *safety* cable and looped around to the mains on the wall -the irony-.
Also, I'm not stupid. This was an accident. I'm a precautious person.

>>688358
>A lifetime of 25 years is an excellent result

It sounds like they are telling you that your power supply is antiquated and that you should get a new one.

>>688358
Don't stop posting now bro, I search for this thread every time I'm on to see if you got it working yet.

>>688377
ok, i believe you, but what you really need is a big wooden pole with a ground wire on the end.

for any dangerous capacitor you should manually ensure it's discharge fully and then short it out before you start working on it.

I'd say get some ppe too but if it was jumping air gaps and through flex insulation? damn.

i admire your courage, i always hated HV stuff. can't trust it.

>>688390
Maybe they were predicting that shock would kill him. OP, you're not 25 by any chance?

>>688430
Y...yes I am 25

Don't stop posting, this is the best thread on /diy/ at the moment

I think I found where your power supply was born, op.

>>688377

Resistors have a maximum voltage rating! If they are overvolted they fail open.

Everybody seems to forget that! Don't get yourself a Darwin Award, dumbo.

>>687340

AHHHAAA finally :

Sehr geehrter Herr Dudler

In der Folge das Schema zu Ihrem NTN 1 950M-65 im Anhang.
Ansonsten können Sie es uns auch zur Reparatur einschicken.
Allerdings müssten wir gründlich klären ob es bei diesem alten Netzgerät noch lohnenswert ist.

Freundliche Grüsse

Which googlel translates to :

Dear Mr. Dudler

As a result, the schema to your NTN 1 950M-65 in the Appendix.
Otherwise, you can send us for repair.
However, we would have to thoroughly clarify whether it is worthwhile even in this old power supply.

Best regards

There's a fair amount of ICs on the boards. If one of them is fried It'll be hard to find a replacement.
I deeply hope it's just a failed filtering cap somewhere or some other easy to repair thing.

Here are the circuit diagrams for anyone interested. All in glorious nazi speak because why not, Fug.
I'll be working on this full time later this night.

I'm surprised OP still hasn't killed himself !

>>688600

>>688606
Last one.
This looks like runes to me.
There are some component symbols I don't recognize.
I want this this to work soooooo bad.

>>688597
Niggers, I understand now :
The voltage difference only BETWEEN the two phases is 380 volts but 220v phase to neutral. That's why nothing happened when I plugged the two phase terminals together.
0v is fed to the huge transformer so nothing can light up and no power is coming from the output.
This means everything working on 220v inside does work independently from the rest but I can only get power with 2 phases....
Ghhhhhh.... w...wait .... I'm sure I have something akin to 380 volts in the laundry.
Will examine schematics more and post results.

>>688607
Can't see any ICs on these 4 sheets which would be difficult to get. I'd worry more about the high power stuff.

>>688623
Just walked in on this thread, sounds like you got figured it out yourself.

>>688603
>I'm surprised OP still hasn't killed himself !
OP plays with lightning and doesn't afraid of anything.

>>688624
where did you find U1 & U2 ?

>>688623
Have the transformers that run on 380 got changeable input taps?

>>688783
Nope. But ....

Guys... GUYS !!!!
I thing I fund the zolubtion !
I wired L2 to Neutral.
That got current feeding into the main transformer aaaannnnddd.... It kinda works... more.
The lights on the front light up and the volt and amp meter light up !
It just so happens they decided to power half the controller board on 220v and the other half on 380.
There's a transformer there to convert 380v to 30-7.5v stuff (why 380v?).

Now, I get a voltage on the output terminal .
And I also understand the whole 3 phase thing a bit better now.
It just so happens I have 3 phases spread around the house.
I'm going to take a very long extension cord and bring it to my room.
That will give me the extra phase I need.
If everything goes as planned, I will get it working this night.
I'll keep you updated.

>>688792
>I'm going to take a very long extension cord and bring it to my room.

Just remember if you have one phase coming from one room and another from the other room and you pull one plug out you have 220v on the pins. Better to get a 3 phase line to a 3 phase plug. That way the gf is less likely to blow up when she pulls out your plug and gets fuged over by voltage from the other phase.

>>688792
If you do get it working, I suggest making its maiden voyage something related to explosions.

Popping electrolytics by reverse polarising them gets more fun the more power you have, and 30 A at 60 V is quite close to the sweet spot.

>>688792
>>688799
>>688801
I'm almost there !
Got the 380 volts, but my breakers trip every time I try to plug the thing.
I don't think my room's breaker is rated for that 16A current.

>>688815
If you've got two phases in the rooms, you'll have two phases in the consumer unit.

A responsible experimenter would run a dedicated circuit.

>>688815
You might want to try a few times. That huge transformer is going to require a -massive- startup surge if it's connected at the wrong time in the mains cycle. Your average household breaker will probably magnetically trip from that alone. Turn it on and have someone reset the breakers 2-3 times in rapid succession while you watch it for smoke/sparks.

(I've done this a million times when starting up oversized transformer based power supplies on domestic circuits)

>>688799
generally does not happen, rooms are wired to keep all receptacles of 120V on one bus bar, and all ceiling connections for overhead lights on the other. And in my state, all ceiling applications must be on a different bus bar than the receptacles. Mainly to prevent situations where a room can not have any powered lighting.

Personally, I'd run a dedicated circuit for this monstrosity the OP is messing with. And make my own test strip for full household current both 120V and 240V at 20A, and then set up a step down transformer to handle lower voltages for testing and experimentation.

But I ain't a fag that needs everything handmade and customized to keep me safe.

What do you plan on doing with this thing? What does one want a power supply for?

>>687340

> Whole factory explodes

>>688826
>-massive- startup surge

Drop an electric heater in series

>>686690
The plug is a 16A 400V plug... 3 phase, so you got that going for you, which is nice...
But damn how much did you pay? This thing looks pricy, like really fucking expensive. Dude probably stole it from a school or something...

>>686709
It is not a 3 Phase transformer... you get DC out, no?

>>689590

...NOT
Huahuehuahue Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. Electrolytic Capacitors ! HEAR ME ! YOUR END IS NEAR AND I WILL FEAST ON THE REMAINS FOR YOUR BLOWN FUMING BODIES !!!

Fucking hell guys...
So I went through every goddamn power plug in the house. The breakers would constantly trip up every time. I guess they went for maximal safety when designing the electrical grid here.
But then, I remembered there was ONE plug I didn't try inside the house.
There's a anti nuclear bunker next to the cave (That's switzerland for ya) . And there is a ventilation system powered by a huge 3 phase power motor inside there.
THAT'S what it took.
A FUCKING ANTINUCLEAR RESISTANT NON-FUSED ELECTRIC GRID to power this god damn monster.
So I went to the local store and bought a 35 meter 3 phase cable for 80 dollars (flaming thieves) and powered the thing from down there.
The cable cost 4 times the powersupply guys.
4 times the cost of the powersupply, my friends....

Also, I guess ...hue... I guess in case of actual nuclear war....heh... guess I'm fugd.

So here it is, in it's full glory.
I seems to work for the moment, I still haven't powered anything extensively for now.
I had to share this with you guys before.

Now for the only bad news.
While getting it upstairs, I had a LOT of pressure on one of my fingers. It feels like I broke a nerve or something. It doesn't hurt but the tip feels like when you get itchy feet ?
It has been 2 hours already and the feeling does not get away. Did I fug my finger permanently ?

You guys all helped alot, I want to make a vid to celebrate.
What should I fug with ? I let it up to you.

That cache you're supposed to pull on the cable BEFORE you screw the cables inside the plug ?
I forgot it at first, so I teared down the thing. I was so hurried and excited I forgot to actually put the cache on back doing so. So I teared down the thing all over. Then my girlfriend asked me to stop working on the cable and come eat. So I forgot for the third time and I still feel pretty stupid about that...

>>689678
Well done op.have been following this for days.

Med student here. You may have the beginning of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. It's a minor (at first) lasion of the medial nerve and it comes from a lot of strain on your palmar side of the wrist.
Just stop doing heavy work that relies mostly on ypur wrists, try to incorporate your whole arms and definetly see a doctor. It will be fine.

Also- great job! Loved this thread!
Also FUG makes me kinda proud to be german ; D

>>689677
Dear OP,

If you feel tingling, it means that there's a problem. You should schedule an appointment with your doctor, at the very least. Chances are it's just a ligament partial/full tear, but if it persists it could cause permanent damage.

Palpate the area by the knuckles, if there's point tenderness then it's a ligament issue. Anything proximal from the wrist is a tendon issue i.e. carpal tunnel.

>>689976
Student nurse here. Palpate means touch/feel. Proximal means 'above'. As in, your forearm.

And yes, you should see a doctor.

I knew OP is going to kill himself,sooner or latter

Germanfag here.
Maybe i can help...
First: Do NOT fuck with this unique kind of german craftmansship. 20 Dollars... hard to believe. Its much more worth. Just ask OP, i will explain and translate everything i can.
And you need 3 Phase AC to power this thing... If you dont, you will kill it.
Also its programmable and the outputs have protection against short circuits. This 3 Capacitors are from "Röderstein". Finest ingredients...
OP is a lucky bastard.

>>690055
Oh, and forgot to say:
Ignore the finger. Be happy with your Power Supply.
Price new is around 1k euros, years ago.
Here is a programming unit, if OP wants: http://www.ebay.de/itm/141171505404

awesome thread OP.
your european power grid confuses me and so does your living arrangement. fallout bunker beside you? what the fug.

here in north america you only get 3 phase power in commercial/industrial buildings and it comes in either 208V/240V or 600v. interesting to think what I would have done with that beast

>>690059
Indtredasting,
Thanks for the link.
What does this thing do ?
Honestly, It looks like it's some sort of glorified cable remote with small trimmers on the front plate.
>>690065
Yhea, I was confused too about the phase thing.
It seems ameurigans only get one phase delivered to home. I assumed it was the same here but apparently, in switzerland ,almost every house has 3 phase lines since it's cheaper for distributing electricity through those HV power lines.

>>690093
Do you have an electric range? If yes, have you ever checked how it's powered? Mine has a 3-phase socket for it.

>>689697
This.

With spurdo on it.

>>690065
Most Aussie houses only have single phase. High density locations have 3 phase along roads with one phase tapped off per house.

I the country its often SWER. Pic related.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-wire_earth_return

>>690528
Actually most Wa houses built before 1990 have 3 phase to the main fuse box. Don't know about other states.

>>689682
Lol just got a mental image of his gf phasing out of this dimension as she orgasms - kinda like the traveler from star trek tng

>>690528
3 phase for residential is nearly always an option. the distribution transformers are fed with 3 phase. you can simply request a 3 phase connection. but it costs money. and I believe there is an extra maintenance fee related to its use. lots of tradies have it in their homes. but most people don't because we're not all operating 10 000W lights or industrial truck hoists in our backyards.

OP here,
Vid incoming.
You'll pardon my awful voice. I sound like a slow minded retard when talking English.
Also, I had little time and no ideas for this.
I'll make a better one with more interesting stuff later. My Gf is traveling for business for the weekend, I'll get the big guns out for the occasion.
Also, I'm open to any ideas as long as they don't involve destroying *too* expensive stuff.

Too bad everyone thinks you're gay now and your finger is fug.

I'm looking forward to the next video.

You glorious motherfucker. I am jelly as fuck.

>>691709
you are fucking pathetic. First...learn how to send shit back. If this guy is giving you shit about "being gay" next time fling back about "So how's the employe discount helping out YOUR collection". Seriously. it's a dildo. Everyone owns them. I'm not gay, and I have six.

Secondly...if you ARE that much of a chickenshit. Thats' what the internet is for.

>fuged over

why am I losing so hard to this?

hey OP, you can use a transformer to convert single phase power into multiple phase power

OP are you french?
maybe from the south?

> hey OP, you can use a transformer to convert single phase power into multiple phase power

maybe on your planet, but here on Earth that's not possible since you'd have to delay the signal 60 degrees and then 120 degrees, and transformers cant delay shit.

see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_converter for the real deal, which is, of course, prohibitively expensive.

You could stick weld shit with that. Lots of sparks, lots of fun.

Been following the thread, thanks for video OP, entertaining read and watch. More people should check out the power of this fugging thing.

OP confirmed for geilä siech! Where'd you find that thing, ricardo or something?
Also, how do you not have a 3 phase plug for your washing machine machine or your stove?

And what's the 60kV PSU for?
And now that I've started asking dumb questions, I might as well follow up with another one: Do you know a company or a workshop in Switzerland where I can get some 10mm aluminium frontplates milled for a decent price?

>>692095
> washing machine or stove
They're built into the wall. The plugs weren't reachable.

>And what's the 60kV PSU for ?
I don't know, yet. I bought it because it was cheap and why the fuck not.

> 10mm aluminium frontplates milled for a decent price ?
Where you at ?
Do you only want to know where to mill them or also buy them ?
There's http://www.metallica.ch/ at Lausanne that has a small shop where you can buy high quality left overs. I bought some 10-50mm alu plates from there.
I have no idea about the milling.

How do you pay electricity bills in Europe OP? Or is it just taxes? Will this cost you much, much than $20 on the long run?

Best thread I've seen in months, btw.

>>691709
>>691738
Its ok OP, you did a better American Accent than Liam Neeson.
Pretty cool video too.

Next video you should blow up some components, caps explode and resistors catch fire for a sec. Theres already a few videos online of this, but not from a /diy/er.

Dildoes

Has anyone ever realised how weird that word it? Write it down sometime, you'll see.

OP, you glorious motherfucker. I won an Icom 0-15v 25A transformer based supply which has done me well. Make yourself a kickarse H bridge driver and wind a high frequency transformer(centre tapped), get some 6kV 300ma arcs, then make a full wave Cockcroft Walton multiplier for 30kV, and then drive a Marx impulse generator.

Aim for 2MV arcs.

>>691738
Just watched this for like the third time, still amazing.

>>692328
I'm in Winterthur. The frontplates come with the cases I'm buying so I just need them milled. I'm getting some pesante/pesante dissipante cases from Hifi2000, check them out if you're curious. They have awesome looking cases at decent prices.
I actually discovered a few days ago that there's a metal working school here and they take orders for this kind of stuff. Gonna shoot them an email these days to see how much it would cost.

>>691738

Sorry you didnt get a dildo. This is probs what would have happened.

Of course it would. You have to chant the right prayers when you plug it and it might work.

http://www.thecasualtruth.com/story/switzerland%E2%80%99s-bizarre-nuclear-bunker-law

I really want to send Fug a letter with some good chocolates.
Could anyone here correctly translate this to nazispeak ?

Dear Fug,
Thank you for the information you've sent me. It helped reviving the power supply I recently bought.
It's now 25 years old and still going, the same age as me.
It will serve well in high energy experiments and power electronics design.
Thanks again for your fast reply, I may not meet your average customer profile but if I ever find another of your products, I will buy it on impulse. The build quality is *out of this world* good.
- end

This thread and Fug as a company made me laugh hard.
Just found this is how they advertise their power supply testing on their own website :
http://www.fug-elektronik.de/webdir/Videos/FugHCKBogen3_4.avi
http://www.fug-elektronik.de/webdir/Videos/FugHCKBogen1.avi

> That file name
I'm thinking my story about how they came up with the name isn't so far from the truth.

Also, What the fuck. I can swear these machines are screaming. Wait....Could it be that Fug is just a coverup name for Hydra's technology department ? They certainly found a way to infuse angry spirits inside their products and are somehow going to use them to power a doomsday device.

Also, going full meta here but It has to be said.
I just looked at >>686721 again.
I already said I was 25 but is that thing saying it was made June 1st ?
Because shit, that's my birthday. I seriously have no way of expressing how wierd all this just became all of a sudden...

Sehr geehrter Herr oder Frau Fug,
Vielen Dank für die Unterlagen, die Sie mir geschickt haben. Diese halfen mir ein kürzlich erworbenes Netzgerät in Stand zu setzen. Das Gerät ist genau wie Ich 25 Jahre alt und voll funktionsfähig.
Es wird in Experimenten mit hohen Spannungen und zu Stromkreisentwicklungen zum Einsatz kommen.
Ich bedanke mich auch für die schnelle Auskunft. Ich zähle vielleicht nicht zu Ihrem üblichen Kundenprofil aber sobald Ich erneut eins Ihrer Produkte finde, werde Ich es kaufen.
Die Verarbeitung und Beschaffenheit des Geräts ist nicht von dieser Welt.
