Re: [PolySix] 3.9v Zener in Jeds board

2013-01-25 by Murray

Any Zener of the correct voltage and the same or larger wattage will 
work. The one in the board looks to be 1/2W or less so use a 1/2W or 
greater replacement. I have a few boards left over from fitting Kiwisix 
upgrades if you want an original.
