P3 ideas (room for a rocker switch?)

[K4TEN]

Wayne, where do you plan on putting the power supply on/off switch?

I too envision installing a power supply in the P3 cabinet, (Samlex 1223)

Would it be possible to have space for the rocker switch on the front panel?
Perhaps a cutout  already in place with some kind of filler such as an
aluminum Elecraft logo inserted in it?
Perhaps just an empty spot somewhere?

How about offering a rear fan option for the P3 cabinet?

- The P3 can go on either side of the rig, or on top, even upside  
down. But we'll supply simple P3-to-K3 support hardware to ensure that  
the P3 doesn't move when you push the buttons. Or you can weight it  
down by putting your own power supply inside, which is what I plan to  
do :)

73,

The power switch is already part of the existing switch array. Look at
the lower left corner of the P3.

P3 can also be powered from the K3 or from an alternate DC source if you
wish. (wall wart, Astron ps etc..) It can be internally jumpered to
either follow the external 12V on/off from the K3 accessory power jack
or to use its own power switch button.

I believe he means a separate switch for an internal 12 volt supply.

Not at this time.

We've designed the rear panel so it can easily be changed should
something like this be added in the future.
