Modded Digital Piranha
I just got done modding my digital piranha so that it does 5 amps on AC power. I used parts from a 7 amp switchiong ps with no fan and mounted all inside the case. It is very light and stays cool. Here's the performance on AC (runs on DC also.)
6 cell battery charges all way at 5 amps
7 cell battery charges 80% at 5 amps and finishes @ 4.5 amps
8 cell battery start at 5 amps and finishes at around 2.5 amps with an average of 4 amp.
It looks all stock except is very light. Ilike it so far.

Yes, thanks , I have only used it total of 2 hours, but I didn't take pics cause it is all closed up (professionally) and looks all stock.

RE: Modded Digital Piranha
What you did is basically the same as using a dc power supply right?
I want some more info on this. I have the same charger and would like to be able to use it the same way you are. Pics of inside the case would be nice too.
