Hey,
Can i leave out the thermistor and thereby the chassis connection on the aleph p powersupply? As i understand it it acts just as a in-rush current limiter...?

| It acts as a ground loop breaker, not as inrush limiter. You can leave it out, and connect ground to chassis, but you might get ground loops in your system. |

| Ok best to include them then ... how critical are the thermistors ratings? i have a few but they aren't precisely the same values as listed. |

| Any termistor 5-10 ohm or so that can handel the same or higher currents will do just fine. |

| I have 12 ohms (4 amps) - is that too high? |

Yep, I think you can. Since we dont have any GND connection on our powermains, the chassis thermistor is not needed:) Other than that, if you have some humm going on, it often helps with a GND connection to the chassis!!!

No, it's just fine. |
