Thread: FS: Jeff Mucha Shutdown Controller

Any takers at $25 shipped.

What mobo do I need to use it?

From Jeff's Mucha site

Overview:
This shutdown controller is used for people who use ATX motherboards in their car. The idea was thought up by some of the people on www.mp3car.com. The basic idea is as follows:You have a computer in your trunk, you don't want to have to push the power button or worry about shutting down the computer correctly. This unit goes in between the cars 12-volt electrical system and a power inverter or to a DC-DC ATX power supply. After a fixed amount of time after the cars ignition goes off, the unit will "push the power switch" and that will tell the computer to shutdown. After that, it will kill all the power to the computer so that it doesn't drain your battery. When the car comes back on (you set your BIOS to boot after power loss) your ready to go again.

Note: When you first power on the shutdown controller it has to go through a complete cycle. It may appear that it is stuck in the on position, but if you wait for the timers to charge up to their operating voltages, the device will behave like expected. To verify, turn R2 to the minimum time, short jumper J1 and wait a few seconds. The device should turn off.

are you selling it with wires or just the controller board?

Just the controller. Never got that close to installing it so I never made the wires needed.
