I missed that.... temps were not an issue for me. I had voltage
readings off by factors of 2 or 3. Now I need to unplug the UPC and
hopefully that will drop voltages enough so I can recalculate my
formulas. It looks like I'll need to have a delta of almost 2 volts
on the 12 volt side to get close. I'm not at all convinced that it
matters that much. It seems like I'm close. Assuming that a +12 V
reading on my meter is correct. I've set the fomulas to reflect 12V
on sensors. A 11.93 reading on the meter, shows 11.95 on sensors. If
my math is right, I'm off by less than 0.2% The -5V readings may not
be nearly so close and present more of a problem to recompute. This
will require booting to bios to read the voltages, assuming that the
power supply is well regulated, I won't have a lot of time to play
before the UPC dies.
Is all this worth it? I doubt it, but I like to play. Hell, I use
Gentoo, don't I?
