All versions had temperature sensing as well as overcurrent sensing. There are different versions if you are using a single main power supply transformer or two (dual mono-block style).
I would like to have both versions if possible, so I can decide which one to use, personal use, but the most compact form, even because I am about to receive the Q17 mini boards made by JLCPCB, and I have not yet decided whether to use 2 transformers or 1
That one works well, but it's protection only. It doesn't control the power supplies.
The older version 4 system was the most compact complete system. Later versions were designed to mount on top of the larger power supplies we offered to work with them. That was likely the version Valery had sent you gerber files for. We haven't released the gerber files for later versions.

Thanks for replying, I'm still from the old electronics world and I'm just starting out programming AVR MCUs. Although I'm 58 years old, I can still do the Gerber files here, but programming is harder for me. It was a mistake not to update myself, but I'm trying. Excuse my English, as I use Google Translate. I want to thank you for your time with me and wish you all the best.
Programming is really easy for these. I've written complete instruction guides for programming and assembly of the boards.
I talk about the source code, and what I have difficulty with, I will study the projects a little, thank you very much for your time
The code is already written for it. I added loads of comments into the code explaining what each line does. The only adjustments required in the code are in the first couple lines. I'll send you the code and build guides later today so you can see what you'd be getting into.
Jeff do you any pcbs left for Speaker protection, the one you put at the output of the amp ?
I want to use my 21st century protection mainboard with other amps too, I consider it essential to any system and I'm spoiled with it's functionality and durability, just the other day it shut down the NS-amp after a connection mistake I made.
Also, of other modules like Tubsumo IPS ?

I still have boards for just about everything in stock. Hopefully some day soon I'll have a revamped version of our website up and running again too.
I would be very interested in buying somemore of your boards. I have the temp sensors, DC boards, current sensors and your power supply board in my Honey Badger.
Which version were you using? If I recall correctly you had a version 5 system. I'm not sure if I still have that one in stock any more.
Yes, the documentation I have in my folder is Ver. 5.3. When I'm ready to buy somemore, I can go with a newer version.
I actualy found 3 of the version 5 boards in my stash. Spreaker relays, supplies, ect are all interchangable with newer boards.
A couple years ago I put together the front panel display prototype and got it working fairly well, then work got in the way and progress stopped on almost everything. Recently I've switched jobs and have got some more time so i hope to revisit that soon. I used an Atmega328 to run the fron panel. I realised shortly after getting it running that it should be ESP32 based so it's easy to use Wifi oor Blutooth for things like a real time clock or remote functions. Hopefully I can get to that after a few other badly overdue projects.

That is great to hear. I mistakenly thought you gave up selling boards entirely.I still have boards for just about everything in stock. Hopefully some day soon I'll have a revamped version of our website up and running again too.
The board set I installed in my Slewmaster build is still seeing use 8 years later.
Valery purchased our domain in Russia. When it came time to renew it I was unable to do anything with it due to the sanctions happening due to the Ukraine conflict. After a year I was able to actually purchase the domain here. Now I'm just waiting for my stepson to get it up and running again.
That's great news. I know that it never gonna be the same without Vallery but in a sense it will continue his legacy.
That's my idea for the new website. I was planning to get it up and running, then add a bunch of content about our past projects as time permits.
