Well that was a fun read, all 57 pages. Thanks to Andrew and Mark for what looks like a lot of work.

Are these boards still available? If so I'd like...

4 x 26 (1.5v @ 1.05A)
4 x 71A (5v @ 0.25A)
4 x 45 (2.5v @ 1.5A)

Respect Due ! :notworthy:
I think the smaller boards will go up to 1.5A so those might all be the same. You set the voltage yourself.
If Andrew doesn't come back to you in the next day, I'll dig out his email for you.

I've been in contact with Andrew about obtaining some additional PCBs too.

If the PCB are no longer available I'm happy to mount on epoxy board and wire point to point. Is the circuit available, with a component list? I recognise a lot of time and effort went into this, happy to make a financial contribution.

Sorry everyone, been busy.

I am putting together an order for more PCB right now, it's good to know these PCB are being used.

Please let me know if you'd like integral heatsink or heatsink externally mounted?

The externally mounted heatsinks board's support two more input caps so they can handle higher incoming current, they will require bolting to something that can dissipate sufficient heat depending upon the valve; there no other differences, same circuit, same parts.

For 300B you have the option of either type of PCB.

Drop me a PM.

Andrew

I got chance to look at what PCB's I had left, looks like I need to order up both sizes.

Just so everyone knows, it will be a couple of weeks before they arrive.

best regards,

Andrew

Over the last few days I have been making some improvements to the PCB screen printing to make them easier to solder up, the orders are being processed and reviewed as I type this.

Thanks Andrew. Building my prototype with parallel AC heaters and looking forward to replacing them.

Could anyone attach a pic and measurements of a finished board with sizings please (W x D x H) including heatsinks. Working out what space I need to accommodate these in my new amp.

Just to gauge numbers, I have.

RhythMick 4 Small
Neal 4 Large
Michael L 2 Small kits + 2 bare PCB
Ray 4 kit or bare PCB?
