I switched 5 Ants over to the 3-panel, that I had running on three separate boards externally wired up in pretty much the same way except without unified fan control. Seems to be working well so far. If I can template all the changes and materials for that setup we should be able to batch some without a lot of trouble.

Also I'm drawing up schematics for an external load-balancing circuit for the DPS-800. If I can get it successfully prototyped this weekend would be nice, and we can get onto PCB design in the next few days. It'll still be many weeks before we'd have a board ready to ship, since we'll first have to get test boards made and stress-test them either into oblivion or passable standards, then get a large batch ordered and start manufacture. I don't see having them before May.


Oh also, anyone buying boards now (or that has bought boards in the last week or so) is getting the new V0.5 boards shipped. The main changes affecting customers are a different DIP switch setup, better current measurement, and the PSU-side connector is actually the real part so it should slot into place a lot smoother and more reliably.
