Re: [PolySix] RE: Various Polysic modifications

Hi Terje,

Do you also recommend the Kiwi PSU upgrade when replacing the KLM-367? They seem to suggest (from what I remember) that the the Polysix PSU design is flawed and is the cause of the battery issue. Would replacing it be necessary if one is replacing the KLM-367?

Thanks,

Arturo.....

This is my dream repair and mod job! Very impressive, Terje.

Thanks!

My feedback after repairing lots of Polysix´es, and cleaning up many processor boards with battery leakage problems, many of them with similar problems like yours, all I can say is this:
Get yourself a Kiwisix processor upgrade. It really is worth it. Very easy to install, and all your problems is history.
