What enclosure are we using for the LE these days?
« on: April 21, 2014, 08:39:22 am »
It's been a few years since I built an Express, and I don't see it listed in the wiki (or I'm just blind, which is entirely possible), but what enclosure is used with the LE and where is the best place to get one?

Thanks.

Jason

The Minleon case rocks. I was planning on using CG-1500s, but made a last minute decision last fall to change to these:

Oooo, I like those.  They look nicer, and are about half the price of the CG-1500.

For anyone else looking, this is it here:

If I remember correctly the Express holes do not line up with the 1500 cases since they were redesigned. I just place a piece of wood in the case & attach the express to the wood.

Here is a lower cost place to get the CG1500, more than $3 cheaper.  You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

Does anyone know if the Minleon cases come with the pigtails as shown?

Does anyone know if the wireless daughter-board will fit into the Minleon cases or will I have to make something to tilt it down?

DIYLEDXMAS does excellent service. They don't charge shipping till the send the goods and charge it as a separate transaction. I got four CG1500 recently and a couple small circuit boards, shipping was around $15 for the lot
