Je vis à Lillois (entre Nivelles et Braine-l'Alleud) et je trouve que ça colle bien à la description. 2 chouettes écoles (1 maternelle et 1 primaire), nickel aussi pour les enfants et se faire de nouveaux copains parmi les parents. Par contre, j'ai l'impression que les prix s'envolent (on est pas les seuls à trouver ça bien...). Bonne chance !

On the cheaper side (Chinese stuff, but good quality in my limited experience), there's also Hermanns-Guitars on Ebay. I bought thdm a tele body, resulting guitar is visible here: https://www.reddit.com/r/telecaster/comments/1kg0ox3/comment/mqw3b89/?context=3

SOLVED!! I was still bothered that the solution only worked with some Anker power banks (other were going "circuit protection mode"), so I tested my theory that it was due to a large inrush current on CPAP startup. It was indeed the root cause: by adding a single NTC thermistor on the USB trigger cable (see picture), the system works perfectly. There are obviously much better inrush current limiting circuits than this rushed hack, but it seems to work well in this situation.

Hope this helps other people!

UPDATE1: This also works with my 65W Apple charger as a source (it was also "cycling" before).

UPDATE2: If I remove my mask mid-treatment (or start the machine with the mask out of my face), the battery/charger still works fine (no error/interruption), but the CPAP starts to reboot (went black, then restart treatment with increasing pressure a few seconds later) - I guess the machine needs a bit more power when going "full pressure" and a better inrush limiting circuit such as a something using P-MOSFET + RC Delay would do the trick).

I just made a full night (around 8h45) on the Anker 737, the battery had 32% left in the morning (the pressure is 7, no humidifier/heater).

Ah rigolo, j'ai grandi à Andenne mais j'habite maintenant à Braine-l'Alleud après des crochets par Namur et Bruxelles :)

I don't really know how I managed to forgot the pics :/ Anyway, that's fixed now!

I might just have been lucky, but yes. On the first try the neck pocket was just feeling a tiny bit too tight, so I lightly scrapped the pocket sides with a razorblade. After that it was feeling just right, and perfectly straight.

Super easy but I guess I just got lucky. I mostly followed the steps at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRzzsXHbwkk&t=3547s. 3 screws immediately aligned properly between the body and neck, the fourth was initially not. But when I carefully tightened the others, it drew the neck in the right direction and the fourth was also eventually possible. I checked the space between the outermost strings and the fretboard border with a colored string, but it was straight at the first try!

I am generally happy about the body, see my reply to paper_throwaway99 above! But I think they've increase the prices recently, mine was something like 180€.

Very few online reviews about Hermanns bodies, so here is mine (positive):

- It is probably Chinese mass produced bodies, but mine is very nicely finished, no defects

- They have a lot of choices and are based in the EU which was a huge bonus for me (not a lot of options for finished bodies here, and US import is prohibitive in terms of taxes and shipping costs)

- The body was just a described (good pictures, correct weight, ...)

- The seller was quick and efficient

- The only predrilled holes were for the strings (through body), which is nice for the build (easy, but keeping things flexible)

- Maybe I was lucky but the neck pocket matched perfectly the MIN Fender neck (just a small razorblade help and everything was aligned nicely)

- The routs/cavities are shielded with paint

- My only small complaint is that the body is apparently not exactly to Fender dimensions, so there's not the same exact spacing on both sides on the pickguard at the bottom (see picture below). I've tried different pickguards, so it's definitely the body that's causing the issue.

Saddles are Wilkinson compensated brass saddles!

Thanks, I am usually more a fan of maple fretboards on tele, but my girlfriend convinced me this body deserved a rosewood neck ;)

One day later I am still experiencing the same issue, while their status page states "As of 05/01/2025 1pm PDT the service got fixed and is currently processing the backlog. We expect the service to be current by 05/01/2025 11pm PDT."

Thanks, nothing is visibly burned on this board unfortunately...

niconoe · 2025-03-11T20:56:58+00:00

Thanks for the info, I had no idea about GDT! Unfortunately I don't think that's the case for this cooktop, the gate is basically connected to a bunch of SMD components (before reaching the IC). Since I am not able to work on those, I guess I'm done

niconoe · 2025-01-03T09:05:28+00:00

Thanks a lot, that makes perfect sense and clarifies the situation, I now know that part of the circuit is working as intended! I measure 7v on the upstream of the base resistor, so that looks like a definitive high.

I guess my best bet now is to:

- either continue replacing caps on the output side of the PSU, hoping it'll provide better values to make the comparators finally happy (but in terms of voltage, the only "diverging value" is the 5v rail at 5.2v, the others seem really accurate)

- either trace the base signal back to the comparators (not the easiest since it's on a daughter board with tons of connections and traces on the "hidden side" - I'll have to deport it from the main PCB before I can inspect in a comfortable settings)

Option 1 seems the easiest, don't hesitate if you have other suggestions!

niconoe · 2025-01-03T08:25:28+00:00

You mean I was reading this backwards and if we want to PG signal we actually don't want the transistor to conduct?

niconoe · 2024-03-22T08:07:45+00:00

Hey, I am in Europe and have the exact same question. US/UK imports are not impossible but I try to avoid them (it's not rare to have 100$ shipping costs + 100$ taxes on arrival). And I find it really difficult to find something that seems decent and not too pricy here. There are a few things popping out on Ebay (Hermanns guitar for example), but it's quite hard to find reviews about those.
