Good point,  I'm forgetting that I'm scrounging some bits and 
pieces from work.  That said, the context of the original question 
was that there was no need to buy and additional PSU.

  I'm Interested in the further interference issues, even with the 
Power-One PSU.  I think you read my mind about making up 
larger cases off one PSU.  Although, reference that other thread, I 
counted up my ampage and it comes to 317mA.  My RS case 
has a cailing of 650mA, so I reckon I'm well within limits.

Cheers,

Stuadh
