Default Shrink Wrapping a Server Converted PSU

I thinking about shrink wraping a server converted PSU. I know guys are using the turnigy 100mm tube from the 24v units, but what about the 12v units? They make a 50mm 2:1 strink tube. Anyone tried it? I am also looking into maybe using that carbon wrap that they sell in automotive stores. Yeah, I know it effect cooling. But the PSU is rated at 47amps and I will at most use 20amps. I doubt I ever warm it up.


This is the turnigy tube I am looking at.

ah, ok. so 100m for a single PSU. He is using the same power supply, so that is good to know. That switch mod is pretty trick.
