    Default FB3 and internal powersupply

    What internal +5V DC PSU are you using for this?
    Is there any small circuit/trafo for providing 5v DC for using at 115/230V?

    I got an wall adapter, but I think it is to big to use inside a laser case..
    Any links, ideas is highly preciated

    Cool

    Did you use the contact form on the Pangolin website? That's the fastest way to get in touch with Bill. Also, he has posted several times that he prefers to be contacted there, as he doesn't always check PL on a frequent basis.

    Thats strange.... i have the catalogue where i took the partnumber from.
    Input should be AC and output DC...

    I see 4 DIODE's and + - signs on the therminals.

    The usermanual PDF also talks about positive and negative terminals on the output.
    They talk about polarity... there is no polarity in AC.

    It must be AC in stabilized DC out
