Title: My New Efika Case!
Post by: Firedawg on July 23, 2008, 05:08:19 PM

I finally have a home for my Efika board.  I was able to fit everything into PAC TEC plastic enclosure model CF-325.  I could have gone smaller but I waned to use the power supply I had on hand.  The I/O plate was a rather rush job with a Dremel tool, but I plan on doing another plate later with better fitted port openings.

Nice and simple.

Those little red push-buttons bring back memories of countless hours involving soldering wires to tabs.

You've done a pretty tidy job. Out of interest, what kind of power supply is that? It's different from the usual computer ones.

@Amiduffer - Lets not forget cheap too! $27

@Hans - The PSU is a Dell NPS-100BB A 100W max output. Made for mini atx systems.   Acquired several of these when I was given a couple of Dell Engineering boards (very small), I'm talking ITX small.  

Works well for this enclosure as you can see the length was perfect.  I had to do some modifications to the PSU case to bring the cabling from the rear to the top or in this case the side to make the fit.  I used tie straps to fix the PSU to the case via the mount screw posts within the case, worked well.
