[QUOTE="Bernard, post: 1026566, member: 1538"] Here in Great Brak River in the late '80s we were still running off the privately owned hydro electric power station. The mains voltage fluctuated so much that it looked liked the analogue multimeter was waving at you !!! Power supplies used to pop with regular monotony. So much so that I found a 2nd hand voltage regulator for the PC. This thing was full of relays. It just clicked 24/7...fast...and....slow. lol Then Eskom found out about the hydro ..... and instructed them to shut it down and tie into their grid. Up went the cost of our electricity !! [/QUOTE]
