The brand of tube?
Enviado desde mi HUAWEI TAG-L23 mediante Tapatalk
I have an 80 watt co2 from china (golden laser)..i had it 2 years problem free..after 2 years of heavy use i blew my first tube and since then iv installed 5 tubes and none last more than around 2 weeks..one lasted only a few min..i know im installing the tubes properly and i even put in a new power supply...chiller working properly...something happened to either my machine or the electric source (220)thats causing premature tube failure..im at my wits end..any thoughts?something i havnt thought of?

yes I used reci as well and that tube failed also...yes I know about the laser color....I really just want suggestions as to what may be causing premature tube failure..like I said, replaced power supply, and 5 tubes, none, no matter of brand, last more than 2 weeks
your error sounds like over current

problems with laser tubes are usually always the sources of power.

especially when you use your machine to maximum power hurts... no I can help more... luck with your problem

Its weird, i just tried the 5th tube after my most recent tube (only 3 weeks old) became so weak it could only burn paper and not even cut it..lol..so now i have installed a brand new tube once again, and it seems to be working in cut mode, but when i press the preadjust button (the button used for forcusing mirrors) it is unable to even burn the tape i use to set tge mirrors....so this new tube seems to be working for now, but it seems weaker than it should and the preadjust does not seem to be anywhere near full power..i had an issue that seems to have started this whole problem..when changing the first tube to die of natural causes, lol...i accidently used non electrical tape (i thought it was electrical tape) and it blew a short threw the tape to the machine frame and blew the tube
..since that incident, i cant get a tube to last more than 3 weeks..most only last for hours or days..i changed the power supply as i felt that the short may have damaged the power supply but im still getting blown tubes...this is getting expensive..lol...im very close to installing an american metal tube into this machine and be done with it
