Incredible Solution to Convert Computer Power

AMX3D's power supply converter is a wonder! It converted my computer`s older power supply to a newer unit easily and with no issues. As a result of using this product, I found that I didn't need to buy a whole new power supply saving me a lot of money. It's easy to install and works flawlessly. The only downside is that it's not widely available in all computer stores..

Pros
  • Easy to install and use, saves money, functional
Cons
  • Not widely available

Design flaws: Computers and accessories

The board is pleasantly small and gives a good 5V output. However, the battery connections are TOO DIFFERENT and the module WILL NOT work if you insert the normal, most popular, AAA battery. At $10.99 each I was very disappointed and will not be purchasing any more units. After putting in some aluminum foil to close the gap everything finally worked (see my photo). No need to fix the design at such a high price! From now on I will only build my own circuits for this purpose, it will cost a lot…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Long wait
