Re: Vinotemp is dead :(
I fixed my Vinotemp VT-12teds yesterday! Not sure what took it out, but with as many electrical spikes and outages as we have here in Arlington, I would imagine that is what did it in. And yes, it's plugged into a protective power supply. I had to go purchase a soldering gun since I've not soldered anything since my 7th gra...de shop class when we made crystal radios. There were only two wires that required the soldering gun to release on the old board and solder in on the new one. The others were all snap on plastic couplers. Kind of makes one wonder why those two were not the same type of couplers?
I got this about two years ago at a Target after Christmas sale for $25.88 and they list now for $165.99 plus shipping. So after $31.00 for the soldering gun and $35.00 for the circuit board, it's up and running like new.
Now to wait for the relative humidity to balance out between 60%-70% and it'll be ready to hold my "stash". I love it when a plan comes together. ;^)
