Just made my repair 5mins ago. It was my first time opening up my eb832, although not my first go around for soldering electronics. Wrapped it up pretty quick and returned it to service.
Works like a dream; thanks!

Yes. I do one better. Instead of replacing the board, I upgrade the capacitors on the board so that this failure doesn't happen again in the next 6 months or after a power outage.Does anyone do this repair for a fee?

Do you know the source for these components?This will get you rolling quick, but I recommend doing the capacitor replacement as documented by _AV if you are able. Best thing you can do is order 2 power supplies, one to fix your eb quick and one to modify with better capacitors
PMing me and sending it in for a repair is still an option:I did the repair on one of mine and it does not work at all now. Even the low voltage ports are unresponsive.

That is the one I use as well, although the caps are not quality it's easy enough to swap out.. I too had to purchase an extra 832 as a backup, because this has happened 3 times now... I have 1 more 832 that is still holding strong with factory 12v circuit. but I'm sure the next power outage we have I will be replacing it.I ended up purchasing another EB832 to get me going immediately, but also repaired the old one so I would have a spare. I used the NOYITO 12v 500ma unit because it shipped with prime.

Last time I bought those boards from amazon, I purchased 4 of them just to have on hand.
