I'm looking at doing this upgrade, but I'm curious and relatively new at doing mods like this - what are the buck converters for, exactly? I thought the SKR could take 24V, and I know most PIs can. Would the 5V one be for LEDs?
@Arcayenneist Mainly I wanted to use 12V silent fans and 5V for the Pi. The SKR stayed at 24V
@Chiral Awesome, thanks! I think I've only got one buck converter, but the BTT Pi I'm using can take 12-24V.
