So I picked up a mean well RT-85A power supply per suggestions from retroRBG. First one would pulse on and off at 1hz, 2nd one turns on, but has a high pitched whine. Come to think of it, the 1st one had the whine during the pulses too. Has anyone noticed this? It's annoying enough that if I can't get rid of the whine, I'll probably get rid of the power supply. It's bad enough first one is DOA, but 2nd one is whining like no tomorrow.
Using a wooden stick as a stethoscope, I found C7 and C29 capacitors are the ones whining. They're on either side of the 2 huge caps in the back of the power supply. Is this another bad unit or this is just how they are? Is there anything I can do about it?
