Guest guest Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Dan,I am sure that it is listed somewhere but I just can't seem to find it.I am looking for the dimensions of the 8 and 16 channel controller boards with the heatsinks installed.If you have the dimensions of the boards without the heatsinks, that would be nice too.I would also like to know just how HOT the heatsinks get. I know this is subjective since everyones load will be different, but let's assume a constant load of 20amps for each 8 channels (or basically max amps that the controllers can handle).I am in the process of locating (or making) my own enclosures and worry about the materials that need to be used to prevent a possible fire hazard.Thanks in advance,Maxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 The CTB16D dimensions with heat sink attached are 6-5/8" wide x 8-5/8" long x 2-1/8" tall. http://www.wonderlandchristmas.com/lorfaq/lorfaq.php#ctb16d-sizeI do not have sizing for the 8 channel.I can't answer the rest your questions, sorry.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Not sure what the exact measurements are:I used a metal sub panel, 4" deep, 12" high, 14" wide, mounted on stand offs, this left me plenty of room for wire, my big hands and air circulation (Cost $11.00 Home Depot), The cover is hinged and locks horizontally, perfect for the laptop to set on. I had to drill eighteen holes for wire and grommets. Looks sweet.Heat, not even warm for me, but I don't max the amps either.Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
