    m3-ATX from mini-box.com

    Just saw this M3-ATX

    http://www.mini-box.com/M3-ATX-DC-DC...=8&category=13

    it looks like a good replacement for m2-atx,i like its small size,it looks best for in dash pc installation

    i wanted to know more about it before i get one otherwise will get m2-atx.
    it has all features of m2-atx(hope i did not miss any) and it can work independently without any regulated power supply i suppose.

    m a computers student so dont know much about power or voltages.hope i can get some help here.
    any comments or views?

    It's just the PicoPSU that accepts a wider voltage range.
    Not anything new & exciting, IMO.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?

    there is something new

    M2-ATX 160W $90

    M3-ATX 125W $80 - programmable timing!


    programmable timing is new, something I desire for my applications.
    TruckPC - gutted, being used for test setup
    BoatPC - off season - Inelmac screen needs serviced again!
    BlazerPC - last vehicle PC I'll build

    One thing that I simply cannot grasp is the fact that both the M1 and M2, and now the M3, have a floppy power connection... And they actually advertise it.



    I mean, come on!? Who in their right mind has a floppy drive attached to their CarPC?
    I'd gladly swap it out for the much needed standard HDD power connector.
    For Sale: Carputer (CarPC) & RCA Y-Adapter
    Newsflash: Take a look at my unsold stuff above, thanks!
    Up Next: Make an OBD to Serial cable & Redo the "MMI buttons"

    also appears to have an input to plug the ign wire for your amp.. not that that ever really worked on the m2 model.
