another option would be to buy from aliexpress the ideal bridge module and then add the CRC after that.
Search on aliexpress for Ideal Diode Rectifier Bridge Module Lt4320. I got some very cheap right before the tariff hit for the USA. Maybe you still get a good price delivered to Greece.
Those boards look like a copy of Prasi's layout 🤔
Also, the labelling on the LT4320 does not look legit.

I would rather pay the designer for his effort.. the aliexpress solution was in case @prasi doesnt have them anymore. I was interested in the SMD @prasi version and so far I didnt get any response from the forum. Then I did a google search and run into these at aliexpress.
Indeed they look extremely similar to @prasi design. The LT4320 is in a socket and can be easily replaced.

Word of caution about the parts from aliexpress. i looked more closely at what i got. LT4320 are not new, they seem to be parts desoldered from somewhere, the MOSFET same thing probably desoldered from somewhere. who knows if they work, it will take me a while to test them and see if they are any good.
I was lucky to get the genuine @prasi PCBs and those PCBs are of great quality.
