AC to DC

get a meanwell power brick with it then

the coarse/fine knobs are horrible

digital control is much better

i also trust the quality and current limiting of the RD ones more

that's €130 for me

waaaay more than a RD + PSU

its ~60euros on amazonde

that's more reasonable

and some other sellers identical model proble cheaper too

just wondering if there is some ali secrets i dont know about

and cant be arsed to go /diy/

and ask around due how shitty 4chan(nel) is

i'd go for one of the RD DPS models, which can be had for €40 ish with a case, depending on the specs you want, along with a 36v mean well psu for €20 ish

some autists even made custom firmware for it

@Tervy I have a 30a 12v meanwell, not an adjustable one, and I've been pleased with it for the short time I've had it. Was the best option on Digikey when I checked. Only complaint was that the surface that's supposed to be mounted on something for heat transfer wasn't the flattest, but it was well within reason.

thing is i need/want adjustable

Just a vouch for the brand in general

Dunno if they offer that type.

if you mean these

Yeh

Aliexpress ones are equivalent these days

its really simple parts

inside simpler case

but yeah meanwell is quite "known" brand of those

so no suprise that it works

Yeah, for sure. Like I said, just a vouch for the brand in general.

All potted up, very high efficiency.

i have 1 order of 5V those already planned

but the actualy LAB-device is still missing

Price felt reasonable for what I got and where I got it.

why i asked help for the adjustable

i guess i could make some silly powerblock > dsp > out setup

to custom 3D print case if i wanted to

but that would need cad work and stuff like that ..eww

I remember when I looked for one before, whatever AvE used seemed reasonable for an adjustable

:D

Shit, Fluke garage sale was last month, shoulda had friend look out for power supply D:
