Possible to get 12V output from the Rambo board?

Hi all!

I have some sexxy led panels that I will mount on the backside of my MK2 frame to get some nice light during late night prints.
Are there any possibility to get a 12V current out of the Rambo board? That would be the best application for sure to connect my led panels.

Best Regards Patrik

Hi Patrik

Take a feed directly from the PSU, Id you remove the printed cover, you will find additional screw terminals.

Much better than draining another half amp or so from the RAMBo.

Yep the PSU has some spare capacity. It doesn't even need a fan, for now.
