First batch of 200 boards is closed.
There will be a few extra boards in stock after the batch will be shipped.
I'll also try to ship up to 20 boards during the last 2 weeks of january with modded main connectors while waiting for the correct reference.

The first boards with 22 PCI-E plugs will be in my hands by the middle of next week to check them before bulk ordering.

Deposit will be collected during next week.

Any luck on a US distributor yet? Please verify that I'm on the list for the 22 PCIE boards for at least 1, but if you have enough I'll take 3. I'm picking up on of these PSU's now. Thanks so much for developing this. I've been scouring rcgroups.com on how to do this myself. I saw your recent post there as well. It seems they have a lot of info on this type of work but not much on how to do it yourself for the BladeCenter H or any supply that will handle this type of load. Do you plan or would you consider sharing tips or how to's for the do-it-yourself electronics tinkerer in the future?

Thanks again!!

There will be a US distributor for the boards. In fact I'll ship him a big batch in the first days I'll have them ready so he can dispatch the boards for small orders locally.

And everything is ordered to make at least 250 boards for the first batch, so there will be a few left.

The DIY isnt that hard, the pinout to start the PSU is available on rcgroup. (A5 to ground to start, and B2 to 12v to start the fans)
Finding the good connector reference is sometimes harder, but the easy way to do it is to buy the power backplane that goes behind the PSU in the server.

I'm not an expert for the PSUs, but xandrios posted a great "how to" on rcgroup for dealing with unknown PSU

I am not sure how the control pins are labeled but I found a diagram that showed looking from the rear , the upper left pin to ground turned on the supply and right most pin on the second row to turn on the fans, This seams to be working but am I doing it the wrong way ?

This would be a question for J4bberwock.
