Where (in the US) can I get an external (DC) power supply?

Post by davidflanagan » Mon Dec 30, 2002 2:10 pm

I'm thinking about an EPIA-based project, and for silence would like to use
an external power supply.

The UK sites http://www.mini-itx.com and http://www.linitx.com both have
external AC adaptors plus tiny internal DC-DC converter boards for sale.

I'd like to get my hands on one of these but don't really want to pay international shipping.
Does anyone know where this sort of thing is available in the US?

Thanks!

David Flanagan

Well, to followup my own post, I've found one lead:

Synertrontech is the US distributor for the LEX DC-DC converted (the one for sale in the UK through http://www.initx.com ).

They say the AC adaptor plus DC-DC converter is available for $35.

Well, here is a second follow-up on my own post. I've purchased one of the powersupplies described above, and it seems to work.

Details are in a newer thread:
