In short, this title describes a worn-out sticker that has been lost over time, still functioning properly. It comes from a PC owned by my brother, who has been away for a long time. Photos are available here: https://imgur.com/a/GJDdULk and more details at https://imgur.com/a/GJDdULk. The device is a non-modular PSU with several connectors including 8 molex, 4 SATA, one six-pin PCI-E, a 4-pin CPU, 24-pin M.2 and floppy connectors. It uses a tt 1225a cooling fan, a slim power switch, and an LED that changes color when powered on or the system starts. The barcode on the sticker is w0093re0610000381, but no information was found online. Help would be greatly appreciated.

I understand it mentions Thermaltake, but it seems similar to the Raidmax power supplies from 2004/5 that came with the computer cases Geeks.com used to sell.
I attempted to search online, but I believe the current results only display newer items.
The glossy black label suggests the branding might have been added during the company's sale.

Wait until you observe the wave before making any decisions. All PSUs with voltage switch belong to a very outdated, poorly regulated category.

Would you consider selling it to a recycler that charges per kilogram? Also, I’m not sure if it’s a good idea right now. Modifying the green and ground pins seems to address any obvious issues.

It's e-waste. If you can locate someone willing to purchase it by the kilogram for recycling, do so. Ideally, break it with a hammer several times beforehand, ensuring no other person ends up with it in a computer. It's trash.
