I'm probably a bit late with this, but I didn't pay anything like that for mine. One like this can be had for A$120 shipped.JamieG wrote:No worries. Didn't know of Vastute myself, so thanks for the link. I spotted a 150W brick there which I haven't seen before. Wonder if it has an active fan in there somewhere ...

Even so, 84 + 69 + 20 (my estimate shipping to Perth, to be on safe side) = 173. Still quite pricey for me, but not totally off the scale. Otherwise, the Pico is almost perfect for the majority of my uses.JamieG wrote: $84 for picoPSU 150XT
$49 for 80W brick / $69 for 100W brick
Can't guess shipping costs but they are even Perth-based. I suppose with shipping it's possibly close to $180 though...
I do recommend replacing the US power cord with a local one though, as adaptors are very dodgy.
