EEZ H24005: Open Source Bench Power Supply Kit Early Bird Complete kit Parts Shortage.

There is a fulfillment shortage and documentation errors in the assembly manual for this kit.

A work in progress (Draft 0.7)

Parts group Bag#2, part B1. Parts list indicates only 2 pieces of M3x5 mm Black, Countersunk head screws when 4 are required causing a parts shortage in the kit. These are used in mounting the AC/DC Modules to the bottom enclosure. These are illustrated and described around Figures 16 and 17 in the assembly instructions.

Recommended corrective actions:

1. Provide 2 more of part B1 in the kit.
2. Correct the assembly instructions to indicate 4 pcs instead of 2 pcs in bag#2, the mounting hardware for the power modules. The assembly instructions are correct, the provided hardware and the parts list are deficient.

Crowd Supply recommended I post this as an issue.

Due to logistic issues we cannot organize sending of two additional screws. Sorry for that.
But as you can see the main mean of fixing and securing AC/DC modules are mounting frame (B3) not 40 mm spacers (B2). Therefore you can left lower side of spacers unfixed, or if you really want to do that you have a great freedom to chose some other M3 screws (length could be up to 30 mm!).

Kit assembly instructions document with this note is now also available here.

Regarding securing the spacers - I suggest against leaving one of the spacers secured with only the top screw. The spacer near the regulator module is not captive as the meanwell module doesn't have a full hole; only a notch. If the module is shaken or the screw/standoff connection isn't quite tight enough, it might shake loose leaving the standoff and screw loose in the enclosure. (This happened during my final assembly).
