My DIY Eurorack case

I assembled my own case using a kit from GinkoSynthese, powered by a 100W HammerPWR SET from Konstant Lab.

The rack consumes around 80W, which is within the PSU's capacity, but it generates significant heat. I’ve recorded temperatures as high as 80°C on the surface of the black DC-DC converters.

To address this, I installed a fan that effectively reduces the temperature by nearly 10°C. However, I’m not entirely satisfied with this setup. I plan to replace the 100W module with two 70W modules. The fan will remain but will likely only be needed during the summer when the temperature in my small studio exceeds 25°C.

The full rack configuration can be viewed on MODULARGrid.
