Tasks
- Design Interface (There are some that already exist, however most of this use ATX 6pin connectors or other less useful connectors - if you can actually find the designs)
- Identify maximum voltage obtainable from supply.
- Modify PSU to boost voltage 12v->13.8v (or as close as possible)
- Look into reducing EMI
Parts List
Complications
- Original PSU was going to be a Dell POWEREDGE 2950 Redundant Power Supply however upon testing this supply, voltage would not rise above 12.2v and would drop under load.
