Hi!
This is a relatively simple mod for the HDPLEX 250W GaN I haven't seen in the wild yet.
Needed to have slightly more than 200W in a form of 12V power brick. Made an adapter using the technique I've seen for Skyreach Mini builds (for GPU power ): basically, crimped molex mini fit female pins with some heatshrink instead of using a full-blown connector. EPS12V is rated for 336W, so I used 10 wires for the 12V power instead of 8 to be on the safer side.
Yeah, PS_ON is permanently shorted, so it's actually an "always on" brick, but theoretically a switch can be added on the side.
Then I designed an enclosure in Fusion 360:
Just two parts, a base and a lid
Overall volume is about 0.28L (total length is 200mm).
Yeah the gaps are a bit off, I think I will trim some inner walls in order to make them flush.
That's all![Party popper :tada: 🎉](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.0/png/unicode/64/1f389.png)
