I, too, tired of having to plug my BlueSCSI into power

Added 5v to the termination power pin. Even managed to put the diode in the right orientation on the first try.

Where did you tap the 5V from out of interest? Any pics of your mod?

I tapped the main regulator, near the power in. Q16 I think? Check all those for 5v. Sorry, I don’t have the machine anymore.

Hey look, I found a pic I took of it! There’s a diode inside the red heat shrink tubing.
