Mini Box PicoPSU-150-XT 12V DC-DC ATX power supply

Works perfect for lower powered small forum factor builds. Does what it's supposed to do, and does it well.

Haven't fired it up yet but build quality is "fair." Wire used is extremely thin. May be enough but not a lot of margin. Motherboard power connector seems brittle and is definitely slightly warped. Had me wondering if it was a knockoff. Unless you have "severe" space limitation, I would go w/a Seasonic 300 watt Gold. I hear they are hard to build and find.

It provided all the power I need to my mini PC.

I was looking for a power supply for an Intel mini-ITX Atom computer that I had installed in a Mini-box M350 (http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Mini-ITX-enclosure-PicoPSU-compatible/dp/B003DXI288) and thought I'd try this one out.It's really designed for the M350, so that's no surprise that it installed easily and quickly (and avoided a kludgey power cable snaking in through the back of the case...)Great little product.

Fault product. Both the initial order and the replacement order wouldn't work. I verified the problem as the PSU since the motherboard works just fine with another power supply. It appears the problems are due to a faulty MOSFET. Reading online showed the following info as a workaround:****The replacement picoPSU I received exhibited the same problem described above. However, I found a workaround. I think the +5VSB voltage instability is due to some kind of race condition between the PSU and the motherboard wherein they oscillate between the power-on and power-off states.I connected the PSU through an ATX extender and cut the +5VSB line. When the PSU is connected first, then the +5VSB line is connected, the voltages remain stable and the system functions normally. I found that adding a 1 ohm resistor in the +5VSB line also keeps things stable, so this is how I made the fix permanent. I didn't do any further measurement of the PS-ON line to see if this really was a rapid on-off cycling.****

2 stars for the idea.My system draws approx 90W. This PSU powered it intermittently at best, and some times not at all; and always accompanied by a high-pitched whine.Plug in a standard PSU and it worked fine.

I had previously used similar product of inferior quality. PicoPSU seems more solid solution and has worked out nicely. Good for small solution to lesser power consuming PC:s where you want to fit them into small case. As bonus, it is totally silent

Great product, I used it to replace my Antec ISK 300-150 PSU, which was loud and took lots of space. Works like a charm! The screw fits perfectly in the back of the case. It needs an AC to DC Switching Power Supply though, which is generally sold together.
