Old Lambda Teardown


I think the best thing that happened today was my holstered multimeter. This development has helped me 
 make new friends around the lab and push into new layers of nerd-ness. I got around to cleaning my workspace around the DR lab's electrical rack equipment. I found some pretty nice power supplies that had the same blown diode problem I learned about the other day when I switched polarity on a BK-Precision PS. 










This is an old lambda brand power supply. Lambda is fairly well known around MIT for making nice power supplies but this one is definitely dated.
