Coverting Computer Power Supply to 12V Power Supply
Anyone have a web link to converting a computer power supply to a hi output 12V power supply so I can run my field chargers at home? It has been posted before, and I think there was also an article in the AMA mag at one time. but, I cant seem to find either.

I just happen to have a couple of these links for you.

i used to have one for using Dell power supplies since the wiring is different but can not seem to locate it.

I though about building one of these, but went to target and bought a 12v power source on clearance for 5 bucks and put some banana jacks on it. It works great and puts out 6 amps.
