Power supply (fanless?)

Hello Comunity,

I am wondering if it would be possible to upgrade the Power supply to something more silent? ... eaven perhaps to a fanless model?
Has anyone got experience with this topic or tried different ones yet?

Thanx and happy printing,
Serge

The original power supply on my Mk2 IS fanless, but I also equiped my 'generic' Prusa i3 with a fanless power supply.

Both my Mk1 and Mk2 have fanless PSUs. They can be replaced, you just need to ensure about 250W output capability, with 2 or 3 12V outlets and an adjuster to get the output voltage correct. The adjuster is a small variable resistor near to the outputs.
