Everyone has forgot this was the #1 complaint against the Fenix. So I fixed
that!

I may design a 5U tall rear cover assembly that fits over 1 entire row. This
is for
UL, mainly for the power supply. It would be thin aluminum (0.062) that is
just
'U' - shaped and bolts to the 19" rails (you would get longer 10-32 screws
with it).

Zip! I have 3 full rows going and the power supply (heat generator) isn't
even
warm to the touch. Most modules generate milliwatts.
