Title: UV LED lamp upgrade for Old-Style High Voltage Insect Killer TELCO K-678B
Post by: Kiriakos GR on November 21, 2019, 08:08:30 AM

This is one of the moments that most consumers burn the money of their old purchase because they can not find UV lamps of this type of product in their market.
And they do that by trashing the appliance (product).

Here is another ITTSB Blog tip about upgrade and reuse.

Incandescent UV lamp this is a rare find within 2019, but from the other hand many LED UV lamps are easy to find and luckily for us, this specific E27 UV LED lamp seems according my investigation as a workable replacement.

My new LED UV lamp will take few weeks to arrive, and I will use this time productively and as opportunity about me getting in to this circuit electrical analysis.

HV zapping coil resistance, High Voltage DC volts and PCB circuit design are details which I am planning to explore by the use of high quality electrical measurements’ and pictures.
