Thanks for the reply! Nice work on the software too btw! This wouldn't be possible without your generosity to the community.

Ill look into the 5v rail supply as well. What do you think i should use a minimum amperage requirement? I have a few power supplys at different ratings.

The maximum input power on the RAMPS for the steppers is 5A, so thats probably all you'll need.. More than likely it will use less as you are only using 2 steppers.
