MOTM

I am a new MOTM user, putting together MOTM/Blacet/Oakley modules 
into a large cabinet or two. I will want to use some 500 series 
modules in the same cabinet as the older modules.

I don't want to use multiple power supplies in my cabinet. I don't 
want to have a smaller number of modules in the cabinet because the 
modules draw too much power for the existing power supply.

New MOTM users wanting to use both old/new modules will/do want a 
single supply in their cabinet. Not some botched-together solution 
using multiple power supplies per cabinet, that is a really 
messy/unprofessional solution in my opinion.

Existing MOTM users want to add 5V to their existing power supply to 
support some new modules in their system.

Please give us a nice clean/single power supply solution to power 
cabinets containing both old and new modules. And, an upgrade 
solution for owners of the older power supply to add 5V to their 
supply.

You would be turning away new customers if they had to buy two 
separate supplies for a single cabinet. The idea certainly doesn't 
meet the high level of design quality that I would expect in a MOTM 
product.

It seems that you are compromising by trying to fit the new power 
supply into the same sheet metal to reduce costs, or to keep existing 
users happy.

You should take this opportunity to make a new more powerful power 
supply to support similar cabinet sizes to the old power supply did, 
using a mix of old and new modules or just all new modules.

You could sell the new power supply to anyone wanting to use any new 
modules, the old power supply to people who only want to use old 
modules, and the 5V upgrade to existing users that want to add some 
new modules to their existing system.
