Product Description
X-Adapter Rev:4 Breakout Board Adapter
This breakout board adapter features a built-in LED voltmeter and 100 amps rated power output. It can power Bitcoin Miners such the Avalon A6, A4, Antminer S3, S1, S5, S7 and/or any other 12volt devices like RC hobby and drones.
Listing is for the X Adapter Rev:4 only, nothing else included.
Meant to be used with high quality two wire PCIe cables.
Combined with the quality of an HP server power supply, the X-Adapter REV4 was made to withstand harsh environments 24/7.
Why the X adapter ?
Power supplies capable of 1200 watts output can sell for hundreds of dollars. While all are third party names and often low quality made in China, server accessory excess allows the market to acquire original TOP QUALITY power supplies at a fraction of the cost. The problem with server power supplies are their proprietary connectors. The X adapter solves this problem and allows the power supply to be used for other applications such as Bitcoin miners, RC hobby, drones.

Works like a charm. Got the package on time and in perfect condition. I’m commenting/reviewing this product not after i got but after using it for abt 30+ days. Being fairly new to mining….I’ve had couple of questions setting it up, all my questions and concerns answered. This is the type of service you would always expect. Thanks guys…keep rocking.

Can’t beat this adapter for the cost.. Bought 4 of them!
Question,, Is there documentation as to how to adjust the output voltage? Happy to change SMT parts or wire a potentiometer if info is available. Otherwise I’ll figure it out.

Unfortunately there is no way to adjust the voltage from our breakout board. There is a way to adjust the voltage from within the power supply itself but this requires opening the psu. Here is a video for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwHlO8LHEtw
You will want to skip to about 10 minutes in to get to the section where he demonstrates how to adjust the voltage.
Please note that by opening up the power supply you will be voiding any valid warranty remaining on your PSU.

Works great for my Holiday LED power lighting to power up 1584 RGB Pixels from Ray Wu, this basically powered my whole entire MegaTree that is 23 feet tall (counting the 180 node star topper).
I wish I can attach pictures to this review to show that this breakout board fits right in the Cable Guard CG-1500 box with a right angle power plug. Works great to power up the HP Server PSU power supply in a slim profile at 900watts.
Using the breakout board combined with the Pixel Controller Falcon F16 receiver board + F8 Distro (or even multiple) is easy, they are all screw terminals, and using a fused 12awg line, actually works good, takes a bit to wiggle into the connection on the breakout board but it works.
Simple design but works great with a voltage LED display and a power switch button is intuitive for on the spot testing of the seasonal erected Megatree, no need to keep pulling the power plug from the PSU or the outlet.
I bought 4 of these before PM went out of stock, but I like to show support for this specific breakout board because it will start to have a very nice presence in the DIY Holiday lighting community, and this community is between the USA and Australia. Buying 4 of these should allow me to pull through the entire season with no hiccups once I use all 4 breakout boards to power EVERYTHING in my show ( MegaTree, Props in the yard, entire house, and driveway arches).
My review may show that I’m not a verified owner, that was because I did not opt to make an account to do reviews when I ordered on [Order #23485] (10/30/2018), but definitely I did purchase from this website. Checkout was really easy which is always a good experience.

GREAT terminal-based breakout board for custom projects/rigs! The low price makes it nice for the DIY guy that’s on a budget.

Purchased this to wire up a few quanta winterfell nodes. Running wires is trivial from screw clamp terminals.

Purchased this for running multiple RC Chargers. Works great.

While it functions perfectly, I wish it were a little more robust. The board itself is rather thin and the plexi-isolator is just as fragile. I ordered two a day apart. One arrived perfectly, the other arrived with the plexi broken on one end. Not critical, but not good. Should definitely be mounted/secured in a project box or case. Otherwise, it’s FANTASTIC!!! Plenty of 12v terminals. If you can make one of these with 4x binding posts (2x POS & 2x NEG) instead of the terminal strips, I’d easily pay double!!!

I bought this to use for easily testing car audio equipment. Shipping was very quick and the quality is much better than I was expecting. Seriously, it’s very high quality and the display and on/off button are very handy for my application. I bought a few from a couple different places and this one was by far the best quality. It’s actually perfect for this application. Thanks for a solid product!
