Status: offline 		Hello all,
I recently bought an ICE and was going to convert a PC power supply to run it. The one I have is 12v @ 4.5 amps. I know thats not to great. When I was reading the instruction manual for the ICE it said they recommend a power supply that will provide 15 amps of power if you want your charger to be all that it can be.
Anyone running their ICE on lower amps and using all the features? How is it doing. I dont want to drop just as much on a power supply as I did the charger.
Thanks
