I want to run my Mini-ITX off of my 12v battery supply which here are the specs for the battery,(26AH 12VOLT SEALED LEAD ACID DEEP-CYCLE RECHARGEABLE SLA BATTERY 26 AMP HOUR 12V) and I want to use a step down transformer, however they come in all kinds of AMPS. I have seen several at 15w 2 and 3 AMPS and one at 75w at 10 AMPS. I would like to know what one to use to power my Mini-ITX, any suggestions.
Thanks
This gives wiggle room to run ezb and also some high torque servos that directly powered from ezb would be too much.
There's 2 solotions to this:
Run a Boost/Buck converter like this Industry Grade DC 8-40V To DC 12V 6A Step-up&down Converter that'll output exactly 12V no matter what the battery does, before the picoPSU.
Or, get a picoPSU like this one: PICO PSU-150WVN DC-DC ATX Power Supplier,16-24V Input,150W and run that off a Universal Car Charger Adapter Power Supply for Laptop Notebook set to 19V.
ASRock E350M1 AMD E-350 APU (1.6GHz, Dual-Core) AMD A50M Hudson M1 Mini ITX
that I found on ebay
PS-Do you take Paypal?
dont need a boost converter or higher rated battery 125 watts and they make others with low voltage input with higher wattage out
m3-atx pico psu
rated at 125 watts 150 max
and handle a dual core 1.6 mhz easy
here is some specs on it

- 100% silent, fanless, no moving parts.
- Operates from 6-24V, multi-chemistry batteries supported.
- Highly efficient design, does not produce a lot of heat.
- Ideal for low power Intel Core Duo as well as all VIA or AMD processors.
