Smart Power Strip Whine?!

Pages: (1/1)

FrizzleFried:

Has anyone else experienced a "whine" at all from their smart power power strip?  When I turn off my cab the strip starts to whine...sounds like a very very very high pitched almost inaudible "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..."



ChadTower:


What's in a smartstrip?  It's just one outlet connected to a relay that turns on the rest of them, isn't it?  No recitification or anything?

Plus a bunch of parts to filter out the noise and provide surge suppression.  I'd assume some of those parts either got damaged or starting to fail.

ChadTower:


I'd start thinking about caps and inductors, then.

mountain:

I would imagine it has to have a circuit in there to sense current draw as well.
