Sorry, this will sound pretty stupid but the reason I'm asking is this:
Quote from Swiftech:
"Solder joints of the wires to the thermoelectric module are EXTREMELY FRAGILE. Bending the wires at their root will break the solder joint, with no possible repair".
OK, I have bare wires coming from the MCW5000-PT with solder joints but they are very short so I can't wrap them around the screws at the back of the Meanwell PSU.
As I understand it, you are just supposed to loosen the screws at the back end of the Meanwell PSU, wrap the wire of whatever you are going to connect to it around the screw and tighten the screw again. Is that right?
The problem is, if I try this with the MCW-5000PT, I am afraid I will just break the wire. I wish Swiftech had better instructions on this for noobs since the Meanwell PS is the PS they provide and recommend.
One other question is, can you hook this up PS to your ATX PS or do you HAVE TO use a relay kit type of thing like the one you can use with your pump??
