    I see. Well, I guess thats ok.

    All is good. Today is my Saturday and I'm sitting at home working on the Christmas Tree lights. Its one of those trees that have the lights built in and they are LED's. Now the wall wart burned up and took out the controller of the lights. And of course there is no schematics anywhere. An odd wall wart that puts out 29VDC. And the control box is all SMT. So, it looks like replacement parts from manufacturer is the only way to fix it. No part numbers on any components or I'd just replace the bad parts.

    I called them and I have no idea where she was from but it wasn't the USA. What a PITA. Now I know its out of warranty and told them so, but they still need to go thru the steps of trying for warranty replacements. Then let me know yes or no before they will even get the parts checked for availability.

    What do you do! Guess our tree wont have lights this year.
