Re: How Hot the Heat Sinks Inside a PSU?

Instead of stuffing these wires back into the housing I'd unsolder and remove them entirely.

I did that for my first power supply. Groups of 3 or 4 wires were crimped together with a crimped lug, then soldered into the board by the manufacturer. This made unsoldering them quite difficult due to the mass as well as the heat wicking away into the wires being removed. It was just as easy to clip them close to the board and then tape over the ends to prevent them from accidentally making contact with something in case they moved. IOW, desoldering them would be cleaner, but it may be more difficult and there isn't really an advantage gained one way over another.
