Case Preparations:
I’ve removed (nearly) all the components off the monitor and power supply board at the side of the case. Just left a single IC for memorial :D. I planned to use the board as a mounting base.
I’ve screwed a cable terminal on it for the mains connections and did the necessary connections to the power inlet and the power switch. I carefully soldered all of them.
I’ve used an old cell phone charge adapter to power the cooling fan. The adapter generates around 7V and this is less than the fan’s normal running voltage of 12V. So the fan will turn slower and quieter. Though there is no CRT and high power things inside, that cooling would most probably be more than necessary.
I hot glued the adapter into a hidden space near the fan.
