Transformers In Disguise……well not like as in ‘Autobot’….but cool anyway!

Got an old PC case sitting about the place? Ever thought to yourself “hmmmm I wish I had a power supply for that electronics project/widget/etc” or “woohoo a home made-electroplater…how cool!”

Well, we have the answer for you> Home made multi-voltage Desktop Power supply, made from er…..a Desktop Power Supply :)

Come along and see how to safely modify a simple PC PSU to get a range of voltages to use on your electronics hacks AND get some ideas and demonstrations on what projects are easily made possible with your new supply.

We have the most excellent Mr. [soon to be Dr.] Elf Eldridge who is just the nicest and most clever chap we know :) He’ll show you some cool stuff!

What to bring [if you have one]:

Old desktop PC..
