Hi there,

Hot off the press, new version of my famed adapters, incorporating some feedback I've received over the years.

Major changes:

*) One-piece design for ease of installation and reliability (but keep in mind that it is now subject to whatever manufacturing tolerances SGI used on their motherboards - especially regarding distance between the large and small socket)

*) Even thicker copper for more current, this is always better
*) Solder mask all over the place, for safety (Even though over hundred of adapters there has never been an issue). Thicker copper allows me to place the mask over the traces, yet retaining the same heat dissipation performance

*) All components are now at the proper™ 45-degree angle, because why not ?

*) Other improvements are for me to make the assembly easier and more reliable, such as socket mounting holes making orientation brainless. The 4-pin header is now SMD.  And the 8-pin 12V socket now does not require standoff post (which I most recently had to 3d-print due to lack of parts).



Cheers

could do with one of these , however the tindy store i saw doesnt ship to the UK

Anyone know an alternate ?

The original poster/maker sells them on E-Bay with world-wide shipping.

Oh I didn't realize tindie didn't allow you to ship internationally. Let me fix. But you're also free to use ebay or contact me directly.
Cheers.

EDIT, I checked and I do have US/CN/EU enabled, maybe you have brexit to thank for the trouble
Anyway, feel free to PM me or buy via ebay.
Thanks

Stock update as of Apr 15th - I have several adapters available to ship immediately.

Stock update June 21st. Several pieces still available.

Also. An update regarding eBay listing. Due to eBay making in increasingly harder to sell stuff over there and their removal of PayPal as payment method for sellers (and their inability to help me add my bank account). I will no longer offer my adapters via eBay.
I will continue to offer the adapters on Tindie or directly - if you figure out how to contact me .

Hi !
Got mine and after tinkering with debug mode on my Fuel it works flawlessly with a Corsair RM1000e PSU.

Hi !
Got mine and after tinkering with debug mode on my Fuel it works flawlessly with a Corsair RM1000e PSU.

Can you please elaborate?  There shouldn't be anything to fiddle with this adapter, plug and go.  What did you need to do in debug?

[kubatyszko]

Pierre used debug 0x7890

The classic “no response from 001a01”
Which often means trouble with PIMM
