Power Supply spec'ed

Since a standard PC power supply does not provided the recommended voltage (7.5V) for our MegaBrite modules, I asked Andy Grahm to order this power supply:

We had considered using a hack to get get 7 volts from a PC power supply but I have not been able to confirm the amount of current with this technique. The above supply can source 20 amps.

I also ordered some additional MTA100 connectors so we can run 50 MegaBrites.
