    | I'll post here confirming if they are the flashable 110v versions. Confirmed. I order 2 of THESE and changed the "color" to 110v. Both flashed easily and the board is stamped with A-400P v 1.1

    Great info, thank you Lalo_uy! I ordered 2 replacements and they are on their way. I'll post here confirming if they are the flashable 110v versions.

    The yellow arrows when grounded at the yellow circle are 5v DC. I'm pretty sure those are the other side of the transformer. The AC side of the transformer reads line voltage. ignore the red and blue wires, they run to nothing right now (was for an old project).

    Much obliged Brumateur. Got a bit more info! I managed to power the PIC directly via an external 5v power supply and it lit up just fine. I bet the power supply is dead. I confirmed it's receiving 120v in, but as best I can tell (chemist, not electrician) it's only putting out 5v instead of...

    So nothing seems obviously wrong. I have an Arduino Nano with the correct picprog loaded to it, I plugged that into my STC, the Nano blinked green then the STC made the slight buzzy “I'm flashing” noise when I plugged in my Arduino. The green light on the nano board blinked fast for 2 min, then...

    I'm not sure. The display no longer lights up, but the pins leading to the PIC have 5v across them. I'm not sure where I can check to see what's wrong.

    One of my STC1000+'s bit it and I can't figure out how to fix it. Can anyone vouch for the flashability of the this link? It has worked for me before, but it's been about 3 years and I want to confirm if possible. Thanks!

    Same thing happens with the minute time base. I've asked for it to be looked at but I haven't gotten any traction. I am ignorant enough about coding that I don't know how to even go fix it myself.

    Because it's just a contact closure, you can run you 12v supply though either the hot or cold sides and it will work just fine. You'll need to avoid doing the pigtail wiring with 110 that most diagrams include. You can even go so far as to desolder the inverter and run the whole board off of 12V...

    Old pin locks and universal poppets

    I have only pin lock kegs and threw away all my original tripod poppets. I swapped to using the universals exclusively. Never had a leak from that location. I think the distributor of the ones I use is Foxx.

    Is is possible to easily fix the issue with the minute time base flash whereby the thermostat set point does not update? I reflashed with the firmware this morning and it is still a problem. I have to either power cycle the unit or swap to a program, change the thermostat setting and swap back...

    Great! Can you help me find one? That's been my issue. My google-fu must suck b/c I am struggling to find a transformer with the right specs that has solder point connections. I did find this which looks close but I think might be 2.5VA (if I math'd right)...

    I bet the shipping cost would not be great! Just so I can be lazy and not disassemble any of the projects I have, can you post a pic or a part number off those transformers? Maybe I will have more search luck if I was looking specifically for the right transformer instead of using the numbers...

    Does anyone know of a source for the pcb mounted transformers? I have a flashable unit where the seller sent me the 230vac version instead of the 110. I have tried to search digikey and mouser but apparently my google-fu is not up to the task of finding this thing. The side has this printed on...

    GAH! It's still broken. Well at least the minute time base when downloaded from http://matsstaff.github.io/stc1000p/profile/hextabbed.html still will not change temp SP in TH mode without a power cycle. Can you please fix?
