Oh -- I thought you were shopping for power supplies, so I was =20 suggesting getting something COTS, you make the mods, and provide =20 those to your customers as ready-to-use units. Alternatively, how about building your protection/shutoff circuit on a =20 small PCB with male and female connectors. If you are still acquiring =20 PS'es, you can choose something with a different connector than what's =20 on the device to be powered and match connectors on your protection =20 PCB, so that they are forced to use it. Now, I'm not sure how much is "too visually different".
