This is the main reason you should replace the original RigidBot PSU. Give Tom a thumbs-up for the video;-) Covering a RigidBot PSU replacement from http://www.ebay.com/itm/161390800851 The cable used is the original RigidBot cable Voltage display available at http://www.ebay.com/itm/141114665295?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&var=440207848208&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Cable C14 with fuse available at http://www.kjell.com/sortiment/el/el-produkter/starkstrom/kontakter/apparatkontakter/apparatintag-brytare-sakring-p37378 ==================================================== Version 2 Update The new update features no original RigidBot cable. Two New cablehouses are created to make a PowerSupplyCable, made of soft silicone multicore 2.5mm covered with cablehose, designed for use in cars The design for the cable is that the cablehouse should be glued with epoxy to create a bond between both cables, Kycon connector and cablehose, with two fills: first just to fixate, letting gravity do the penetration, second fill is total, filling the cablehouse KyCon connector proved complicated with many parts; therefore I use only the connector and metal parts. Connecting 2.5mm multicore soft copper wire poses difficulty, but using solid wire and wrapping around copper simplifies soldering of KyCon connector, and isolating sides with crimp tube results in neat installation Even if thin wires result from wrapping, the bridge created by solder will measure at least 2.5 mm squared To ensure low voltage loss over long cable length, it's recommended to use cables at least 0.75mm², which translates into 0.3V loss over 500 meters, whereas my current set uses 2.5 mm² with only 0.1V loss and near original RPB performance I modified the voltage of PSU from 25 to 24.1 V so RB motherboard gets accurate power supply Rigidbot Wiki explains cable color coding properly - see this for more information http://rigidtalk.com/wiki/index.php?title=Replacing_the_Power_Supply The voltage display can be connected at the input or output side of regulator, with USB connector serving to power parts such as a Raspberry Pi and a USB hub A step-down Regulator allows connecting devices through its 5,1/2.1 DC ports, powering accessories in this manner; this also helps in reducing voltage drop Regulators are able to regulate at a 2 amp current without requiring fan or heatsink due to compact design. Version three makes some minute dimension adjustments The regulator trim pot has minor adjustments required to restore normal alignment In terms of overall design the USB mounting plate received extra rim for more seamless attachment
