This PSU killed a Microsoft Surface and a monitor

This unofficial PSU exploded and took out an expensive tablet and the monitor it was connected to. It could have been worse. The fault could have delivered a significant and sustained electric shock from any exposed metal on the tablet. If you have an identical style of power supply, then I recommend binning it and buying the real thing. At the very least check for the same issue, although that will involve breaking it open. This unit has the model number DHM1800 and no serial number or traceability. Other names and numbers may be used, so go by the shape and origin. Don’t use cheap power supplies with expensive equipment. At the very least it may impair it’s operation. If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube’s advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty. #ElectronicsCreators
