Even if it's Schumacher there's no guarantee that the one you have is
the one the schematic is for.

As a designer, your employer would expect you to work with what is

Obviously not being a designer, it seems you think that product "B" can
be modified by looking at documentation from product "A" without regard
to the actual implementation of product "B".
Such is not the case and, as a designer, I would expect my employer to
supply me with documentation sufficient to accomplish the task at hand
or request that I reverse engineer the product in order to generate the
needed documentation.
---
You have an schematic in front of you.
---
No, I don't. I have a screen telling me that no parts are available for
"that model".

If you have a design suggestion as to how to implement the requested
design change, please offer it.

I offered two _real_ solutions commensurate with the data you supplied.
---
If not, admit that you cannot do it.

So, you're not trying to be a smart-ass, huh?
It must be inherent in your nature, then.
---
Thanks for any positive suggestion that you can offer.
---
I suggested that you take some photos of the charger's internals and
post them so we might have a look at what's going on in there but, so
far, nothing.
If you expect help you might at least put in a little effort yourself,
yes?

You mean you dislike the fact that I criticized your attitude?
As far as I'm concerned you _are_ a smartass and you also seem to be a
troll trying to foment discord with your entry level slurs.
And, yes, I'm not a team player; I run a solo act.
---
I have supplied you and others with sufficient info to determine a
design opinion.
---
In your opinion, but you're certainly no designer, so how would you
know?
You haven't even, for example, replied to the query as to whether or not
you have a transformer with a dual or a center-tapped primary, which is
crucial information for designers
---
Others have been able to supply information (which I do appreciate)
while you seem to be unable to.
---
If you think I haven't, then you either have a very short attention span
or you have rather limited reading skills, since I suggested a resistive
voltage-dropper, contacting the charger manufacturer, (which you said
you did, but never replied to the group with what you found out) and
photographing the internals of your charger and posting the pics, which
you never did either.
---
I have also posted this same question elsewhere..and again no one else
is complaining like you are.
---
I think they're mostly ignoring your little epithets. As a matter of
course, I choose not to.
---
While I thank you for what positive comments you have offered, you may
want to reflect on why you alone seem to have a continuing problem
with a simple design consultation.
---
LOL, if you think this is a design consultation you're the one with the
problem.

Good luck with your career and have a nice and productive day.
