Voltage pot BK 1670
« on: December 04, 2023, 07:10:06 pm »
Like many others i find my voltage adjustment pot too sensitive..

Im taking an educated guess its the 50k VR2 pot
Found in ...
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/bk-precision-good-customer-service/?action=dlattach;attach=26074

My question is what wattage should I be looking for  in a 10 or 3 turn replacement?

Thanks for the help!

Edit;
Added the owners manual...

Cant open the schematic right now but I do not expect the pot having any specific power requirement. You might consider putting another smaller pot (5k) in series if the front allows for this. In use this is many times quicker especially if you want to go all the other way of the range.
When it fits stop using the hammer

Thanks for the reply, my feed proves that AI is listening....  A video poped up an hour or so later with someone who had an old large 1k 10 turn pot in series and a huge metal dial allowing super fine control... ebay has something on its way...

you have the classic 10 turns  and the 20 turns who take months to turn  loll

yeah something like 10k normal turn   with an 1k  multi turn  to adjust with precision ....

but some people are confusing linear with logarithmic models,  they have some surprises when dialing values ....
