Nerm Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I just got home from dinner with my fiance and found my PC room breaker kicked. After a little investigating I found that the reason it kicked was the Chilly1 Single Stage blew. I am only hoping the rig is ok.

Nemo Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Say it ain't so - better get some liquid nitrogen to tide you over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTSchnarfy Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Wow man, that really sucks (I was gonna say "blows" but that may not have been as funny to you as it was to me). I can't imagine coming home to that situation. I hope everything still works (aside from the phase, of course). If by some chance, you need a new chip, I have a spare Opty 146 that's going to waste. Good luck! P.S. - May as well get a DI tube while the rig's gettin' torn down! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 what blew? like... a fuse? do you even have appliance fuses in america? over here, the UK mains plug has a fuse in it... i can't remember ever seeing an appliance fuse in america... does that mean your stuff just blows up or sets on fire? like, do you rely on circuit breakers?

Nerm Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I haven't determined just what happened yet. I don't know if the mega capacitor in it blew or what...and yes nrg I assume the circuit breaker saved my house from burning down lol.

road-runner Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Oh man! Sorry to hear that Nerm, I hope your rig is ok? Let us know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Does that mean your stuff just blows up or sets on fire? like, do you rely on circuit breakers?Jeez NRG we aren't cavemen... We may have different terminology because NERM said in the first post that "a breaker kicked", which means it set off the breaker...

Nerm Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Well there is some good news. The main rig is ok. .....I guess I am gonna have to replace the phase with a dice tube since I have access to a limitless supply of dice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 (edited) Jeez NRG we aren't cavemen... yes you are lol... in england we have circuit breakers, fuse panels, and fuses on every single plug... individual appliance fuses can stop high current to equipment before a circuit breaker trips that's one of the reasons why the UK mains plug is the best in the world so all you need is some sort of dice feed/conveyor belt (and acetone? mixer) lol Edited January 31, 2007 by hardnrg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerm Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 so all you need is some sort of dice feed/conveyor belt (and acetone? mixer) lol lol, yea maybe some kind of concoction of shamino's auto DICE setup. An auto liquid line feed from a reservoir of acetone or ethanol would be nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uber Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 according to bosco and others that went to CES there will be DX11 released later this year DX10 is a bridge. That is, if you were looking at the 8800 for DX10 support lol, yea maybe some kind of concoction of shamino's auto DICE setup. An auto liquid line feed from a reservoir of acetone or ethanol would be nice. If you can do that ill send you $5 paypal, and have it running for like a week You know you can do it! *snaps fingers and waits* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
