What should it look like ?
I just bought a 40w 2030 and hooked up the water supply, and there is a puddle in the bottom of the main outer tube.
I can see water flowing through the narowwer inner tube.
If I pinch the output water hose, there is dripping at the low voltage end .. inside the tube from the narrow tube to the outer larger tube
does that make sense ? :)
If so , does it sound wrong ?
It looks wrong, and the tube doesn't fire !
I've hooked the wires up to another tube and that fires ok
Help please :)
Thanks
Rich

Can you post a photo? There should be no drips inside the tube. Laser PSU's can be deadly so be careful if it is leaking water inside the tube.

How many water input/output ports are on the tube, there should be 4 in think. 1 input 1 output and 2 which need to be joined together to complete the circuit.
