Doc what version is that, I don't remember the dc boards being seperate

Do you mean the pcb on top and transformer board on left behind it, they did go a bit black in plastic but still carried on working lol

Metal version had more room though

 

Its the plastic one with LCD rkp on board, from memory there is the main PCB that sits right out front, then a secondary PCB behind with PSU stuff on??

 

Either way it seems to be getting hot, hot, hot, although most of the dmaage was probably done in the 7 or so years before I first started servicing it when it had

a shonky 'POWERBAND' dead chinoise battery in it.

That will be the cheapo abacus 8, same case as the rebel 8.

They also did a metal abacus 8.

You've saved me the bother of actually looking up the customer record, despite me being sat at my actual work PC with all the files open
