Omega-TI Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Cool topic for a thread, but what exactly is the accepted definition of "modded" for this thread? Very interesting control panel... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 That is a beast of a 4a right there. Mine's at the "I removed the greasy nasty felt" level of mod. Nothin' worth showing off. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 You've got me beat @Schmitzi, the only unique modification I've done is the temperature gauge and some power switches. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 What is funny on the Mars Attacks! thing is that She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed was recording a message for her sister tonight, and when she played it back to listen to it, all the two of us could hear was: Ack! ACK! AckAck! Ack! We both looked at each other and laughed. . . 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDMike Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) My right side PEB houses my tape drive and a couple hard drives with a pc desktop for a power supply, but not shown clearly and completely is my regular PEB that is attached to this monitor.

Omega-TI Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 @GDMike How many functions do you use on that << 5.25 Dashboard >>? Besides monitoring the P-Box temperature and controlling a couple of fans, it looks like a guy could... 1) Route the SD card for a TIPI there. 2) Route power to the USB's to charge a cellphone or something. 3) Route audio there for whatever reason. 4) _________________________________________? The price looks reasonable too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDMike Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 (edited) I had a plan to do exactly that, then things happened to get in the way of the project. But one day I will get to it. Rt now it's realtime temp, 2 hard drives. Edited January 2, 2021 by GDMike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Schmitzi Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 Tinkering for some more fresh air for the PFM Geneve. Air flow direction of the 2nd fan is from backside to front (feeding the power supply) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
