    This is Foundry Networks FastIron 2402 Edge Switch. They're not complicated to disassemble but are a little inconvenient and difficult to streamline, especially the power supply which is annoying even by power supply standards lol. Only on the fifth one did I get a time under ten minutes. The upside is the main board (looks like mid-grade high to me) is quite large and weighs 2lbs, 1oz.

    What are you doing with your scrap power boards? Selling locally, partially stripping them and shipping? 73, Mike

    Just clipping the pigtail and shipping them off. Can't even get breakage price locally and if I strip them at all they'll be devalued and barely cover the shipping price. Not a lot of great power board options from here, at least not until I dramatically increase the volume.

    I'm doing more tv's and power supply boards are not worth anything here at the moment. I don't have a pile but have to decide if I want to include them in the shred pile or ship them.

    So I guess I hold onto them for now. I don't process a lot any more and concentrate on selling on ebay. It will be a long time for the next pallet to shipped from me. 73, Mike
