 +Cycling the DSM rapidly killed F5 (6.3A, slow blow). A 6.3A fast blow fuse from F6 was moved into F5, and a 5A fuse has been installed into F6 (as a bodge).

 +Worked on replacing the annoyingly loud fan of the BIVAS with some gamer fans.  Unfortunately, we only have 2 right now, but we need 3 (140mm fans, with RGB of course).  Ordered another one.

 +Printed some brackets that will attach the fans to each other.  We will need additional brackets to attach the fans to the rack in the future.
 +
 +The 2 fans are //temporarily// mounted with zip-ties so we have some airflow at least.

 When pumping up the bellows, they start moving at about 2.9 barg.  Pump very slowly at that point because you only need a tiny amount of additional air to actually start moving.  Always do the front bellows (the connector with the ball valve) first. When pumping up the bellows, they start moving at about 2.9 barg.  Pump very slowly at that point because you only need a tiny amount of additional air to actually start moving.  Always do the front bellows (the connector with the ball valve) first.
