RE: fit-PC Slim require 12v

You can change the 300 to a 330 and you will get 10V. I would not go 12V with the speced transformer. But there is no need for 12V. The voltage just goes into a 5V regulator in the slim, all going to 12V gets you is a hotter box because the regulator has to drop more voltage.

If you really want to go with 12V use the VPS36-1200 and run the secondaries in paralel instead of in series as in the schematic. Change the resistor values to 430 and 51 that will give 11.8V. If you use 1% resistors you can tweak the voltage even closer. But again I don't think that is necessary.
