Closer look
The backside of the powersupply has the powercord plug and on/off switch. There is also +12V connector for external peripherals. A cord for this connector is not provided with the power supply. The Exhaust vent is made from bee-mesh. The blackmoon 550W power supply is cooled by a single 120mm fan.
We decided to have a look what's inside the power supply. There are three small heatsinks cooling the most crucial components. I've seen larger heatsinks in other power supplies and I'm starting to fear that the 21db noiselevel Spire promises the Blackmoon to generate isn't accurate. There will be more about noiselevel in the testing session. The fan is made by Spire and as said is 120mm in diameter. It has couple blue leds in it to give a 'geekish' look in your case.
The Blackmoon 550W PSU has sleeves around the cables. This helps to keep cables sorted. Also molex connectors have clips to ensure easy removal from peripherals.
