A system that, in a natural convection embodiment, comprises a structure having an output cord and a stand coupled thereto for mounting a power module in a substantially vertical orientation. The stand has a base with a first vertical piece extending therefrom to a first fin that is parallel to the base and having a second vertical piece extending from the base to a second fin that is parallel to the base. The power module plugging into the stand defines a first gap along an edge of the first fin adjacent to the first side of the power module and defines a second gap along an edge of the second fin adjacent to the second side of the power module. The stand allows vertical heat dissipation generated by the power module with air flow vertically through the first and second gaps. Alternatively, an air fan is included for forced convention.
