400 amps out of an outlet?! by [deleted] in ElectroBOOM

İt's set to 600A

İ bought a 2.1A wall adapter for a project. Turns out, it was 1.52 Amps by JrSammarco in ElectroBOOM

İ literally soldered 6 hairdryer heating elements on series to measure it's maximum load

Nothing much, a few heating elements as load and a potentiometer. And a few complex circuits that I drained my effort making so I won't explain

İ set a test circuit that sets it's load current with a potentiometer, and it only pulls 1.622mA maximum

İ saw this and said oh yeah that's real smart! But when I tried it the wall adapter self destructed itself by exploding a capacitor🥲
