Thread: M2-ATX(-HV) 160 watt Intelligent DC-DC PSU

No Problems whatsoever with mine in the real world hookup!
Also, I have the 4Pin 12V+ header on mine for the P4/PCI-X Power connections.
I am fixint to hook up my Lilliput to the P/S, as well.
The Polarity issues are "NOT AN ISSUE" as they have been re-programmed/fixed to compensate for plugging the mobo/case switch in backwards, it just functions like the power switch on the PC usually did, " Did not work"

So given this, then I hope I am posting this question to the proper thread as I feel this is a "FAQ type item"

Is the IGN feed wire (the center yellow wire of the main 3 inputs) simply a discreet 12 volt sense input to the boards logic or is there actually a substantial current flow on this wire? I am asking for obvious reasons like can I get by with using an 18 gauge wire as opposed to that huge wire that comes in the kit and also so I know I can connect it to any source without worry of overloading a circuit?

sorry to ask what should be a needless question but I find very little useful info on this PSU, it comes with absolutely no documentation, and the online manual is sparse at best.

Thanks

Just tried it tonight... looks like the M2-Atx can also run the rogers portable internet modem off the 12V rail.. I just cut into the floppy line and wired up the modem and voila..

Shame my motherboard isn't compatible.. :-(.. just draining off the 5V rail....won't boot often...

How much power will be consumed in an 12 and half hour period. Will this thing drain my battery while in hibernation? I know it has the shutdown protection but is that enough?
