Looking good! That’s a very clean design as well. Thanks for the regular updates. Can’t wait to see how this progresses.
I’m going to see if I can get a few more done before sending them off; in the hopes of getting a better deal on shipping. SE & SE/30 as well as whichever variant works with a IIvx (I’d have to go look that up; I think it’s the same one that works with a IIcx & IIci?)
I’m also waiting on some parts from China that shipped the slow route…

I think that’s right regarding the IIvx supply. Pretty sure it’s the same as the one that powers the Q700/IIcx/IIci, and a quick internet search appears to confirm that. I even swapped in a 7100 PSU into my Q700 when its PSU died. Prioritising the SE & SE30 + IIcx/ci/vx/Q700 designs seems sensible, given the popularity of the former and the broad capture of multiple machines in designing something for the latter. I am personally most keen on PSU replacements for the Q700/IIci + SE/30 in addition to your LC run, so take that anecdotal data for what it’s worth!
Also, those are what machines I have to test with: one SE; one SE/30 (full machine); one SE/30 logic board with battery damage; one LC; and one IIvx (just arrived).
The others - as of yet - probably don't need PSU replacement: a Gossamer G3; a grey G4 tower (I forget which rev - it's not the mirrored one); an iMac DV, and a 2010 Mac Pro.
