I’ve been using that series for a bunch of years now and I’ve been very happy.

Happy Birthday! Enjoy

R28 and R29 are the bleed resistors for the DC output (typically 400V or 450V). R30/31 & R32/33 are for the DC input and are in series since the voltages they see will likely be above 500V. In general, the capacitor bleed resistors are set to around .4W to .45W or thereabout - independent of whether they are in series or not. They can be a bit more or less. I usually like less. Any values that get you close are fine. Just make sure they are still 500V each and at least 1W. This chip storage is mentally fatiguing... or... a great way to hone your skills. Pick one

Happy Birthday John! Enjoy
