I have the wifi version of - 1200.58ZAR |Rd Riden Rd6012 Rd6012w Usb Wifi Dc - Dc Voltage Current Step-down Power Supply Module Buck Voltage Converter Voltmeter 60v 12a - Voltage Regulators/stabilizers - AliExpress for power injection / troubleshooting electronics / charging cells etc.
I used a old laptop PSU (19v 3a) which works fine. I have a old Corsair RM650i lying around, which is missing the 24pin ATX so I cant use it currently without buying that cable.
I want to use the RM650i (GPU 12v) power cables to power the RD6012 as the PSU has a zero-rpm fan and should provide much cleaner, more stable power as its Gold+ and wont need to output more then 72W (pity as 20% of the PSU's 650W would hit a "highest efficency" point, being 20, 50 and 80% in most cases).
I plan to cut the GPU's cables, solder the ground cables together, and then the 12v cables together. This will then be connected to the RD6012 and have heatshrink added. Final unit will be built into a open little woodern case I'm making for this project / tool so the fan can pull in clean air without any resistance.
Is there anything I'm overlooking or simply not aware of?
