Pre-Braided PSUs?

**Razor** · 26-12-2003, 06:32 PM

As the title says really, is there anywhere that sells Pre-Braided PSUs? I really want a braided PSU, but sadly I do not have the confidence with electrical wires so that I could do it myself.

Ive looked in the usual shops, but no luck

Any info will be greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure, but I think Dabs.com will have the ThermalTake Butterfly psu somewhere on the site

They're pre-braided iirc.

All but the smallest ThermalTake are braided (3xx watt)

My 420W job only has the ATX cable braided

thats what i ment

, forgot to state it though

Your looking for fully braided PSUs ?

Braiding is a easy thing to do as long as you take your time Razor

In the UK the thermaltake butterfly as theo stated is the only one i think, that has different colour braids rather than one uniform colour for the PSU, shame there isnt more, in the US you can get really nice ones such as modular braded PSU's, mmmm

It doe's that if you don't make a tight fit between the braid and heatshrink, I used cable ties and sealed the braid (hot melted) and folded it under it's self.

Kustom will do it for you, I'm sure.
The good thing is that if they do they will take over the warranty

(even removing /replacing the molexes to braid technically invalidates it).

I know that it is not on the site but I am sure that some one asked in the forum before.
send Graeme an email.

cool, will do that later on, been eyeing up a new psu so would be cool if they could tart it up for me

i did that, and it still came off

make the heatshrink tight enough? (hairdryer)

Soldering irons work better with heatshrink
