Hi Ladies and Gents ,

Thank you for talking your time reading this .
I recently purchased an sds7 from south korea ,
and today having put in the plug ( belgium ) and switching on the
machine ,
i saw the lights flash for a bit but then all went dead ,
reanimating the machine doesn't work .
I am by far not experienced in the electric domain , but i did
noticed , after having pulled out the fuse that the tube looks
greyish dark on the inside walls and hollow in the centre .
I know nothing of this brain's past , perhaps it hasn't been used in
a long time .
I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me out on this
one ,
been waiting so damn long for this brain and having it here out of
use is torture !.
Perhaps a new fuse ? , or new battery ?
easy to find ? .
Thank you very much
Sander
