Thanks for the update & info!> So we don't have to worry about Fischer SK 88-125!
No, and SK88-125 won't do, because the regulator board is 134 long.
So you need to get 134 exact (will cost you at Fischer), or cut to length from 150 yourselves.
Cutting to length along will cost you 5~10 Euros per cut in Germany !!

When mentioning the SK 88-125, I had this post in mind.
Sorry guys...
to save confusion I have now added pay pal fees into the final cost, this is now your final payment in Australian dollars, the spreadsheet is now simplified.

is this confirming that all the earlier discussed IEC sockets do not fit?If you can find something else with depth (behind panel) less than 36mm, I can check for you.
> Who do we pay for the regulator heatsinks?
> Do they come with the chassis/case?
Yes, they come with the case parts.
John will collect money for the case and regulator heatsinks later, and then bank transfer to Mark Lai, who will pay for the parts in cash.
Please wait for instructions next week.

Correct. It also seems that not many is insisting on IEC (re Excel list).
So for me, default is still baseline (Neutrik PowerCon + Fuse + Toggle Switch).

Yes, the regulator heat sinks were originally not included, but we found a local source in HK which was very good price, so we went ahead and bought 50 pieces to offer to you at the same price (6 Euros). However, they might need machining from 150 to 134mm. But it should not cost much extra. I estimate max 10 Euros per piece including machining, tapping and re-anodising afterwards, but shall confirm next week.
It is optional, so you are not compelled to order. But we doubt you'll get it at a better price with all machining and re-anodising.

That is excellent news Patrick. Having the heatsink cut to the proper length and drilled/tapped will be well worth the additional cost!
Regarding the power connector for the case, I think I would still prefer and standard IEC. If the majority of the GB participants would prefer the Powercon style connector, than works for me too.
Please pick an IEC type with the mentioned limitation in depth so that I can check space for you.

John,
If possible I would like to have my heatsink to be shipped to qusp, he has some more things from another GB and will combine the shipments. In this case I think I have to transfer 146 AUD. Is it correct?
Thanks,
Davide

Hi John,
A remark on the European VAT:
This tax will be determined when the goods pass customs into the European Union. It is not yet clear, in which country smyslow will pick up the sinks, it will be either Austria or Germany.
So, the VAT will be either 19% (if the sinks are picked up in Germany) or 20% (if picked up in Austria).
The country of the final destination will not be considered; it's the entry point into the EU that matters.
Thanks for pointing this out, heinz1.
The heatsinks and cases for Europe have to be sent to Austria because this is the place where I'm living at the moment. So the VAT will be 20%.
But if it makes sense, i.e. the shipping costs are lower, I also can ship the parcels with cases and heatsinks to the European GB members from Germany.

Hi Patrick,
what's with this one?

Thanks Uwe.
Attached is a screen dump of the rear end of the case.
Light blue is the Cradle on which the main transformers (in light purple) sit.
Red are the output speaker terminals and cabling route.
Pink is the outrigger for the regulator heatsinks in grey, but they are way above.
So are the wiring to and from the regulators.
The IEC is the rectangular blockin the middle of the picture in beige.
There is a 10mm gap between the back of the IEC and the transfirmer.
So a bit tight, but not impossible.
There is another 5mm or so more space when using the PowerCon.
