Hi everyone, I've been reading here a bit, and it seems like you all are pretty knowledgeable. I've got a Boxlight Echo X30N that was intermittent for a while, you had to plug and unplug it a few times lately to get it running. Now it's completely dead. Nada. Fuse is OK. Can you help? Service manual maybe?
thanks!

Your topic title is different then the projector you are asking about.

Yes. Please correct as it creates confusion.

Sorry, brain dead earlier, I was looking at what a Qualia would cost to replace the boxlight, and got sidetrack. Corrected now..

I don't want THAT type of tech support. I want to repair the projector! I can solder, and have some basic electronic skills.

Does this thing even have enough value to waste time on?

Can you post a picture of the power supply?

Sorry, I got it repaired locally. Cheap too, $75 total, parts and labor. I actually found most of the problems, but the tech found a couple of parts that I missed, and had stock of the shorted components. Thanks for the help, I'll be posting again I'm sure. |

What were the failed parts so we have a reference here?

OK, I don't have an exact parts list, but I found the defective switching transistor and blown fuse. The local tech then found a capacitor that had drifted in value, and an open resistor that I missed. The driver section was OK, but without replacing the capacitor, the tech said that the new parts would have blown again.
hope that helps, thx.
