Anyone have any experience with this PS? I can figure out where the line cord goes, and I can put a meter on the other posts and figure them out, but I would sure like to know what I am doing!
Also, any recommendations on hook-up wire? I'm guessing 14 to 16 gauge stranded with solder terminals on the supply end and stripped/tinned on the Gecko side should be sufficient.
The motor cables are nice, but now I need to figure out a neat way to get them through the side and then plug the gap so the electronics compartment stays somewhat dust-free. I figure I will make a template and route a rectangular hole big enough for the molded plug to fit through. Then I need to make some kind of a cover.
