Review on MEAN WELL LRS-350-24 High Power Single Output Switchable 24V 14.6 Amp Power Supply: 350.4W by Tom Roberts

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Fan at 50% and Pretty Loud (Prusa MK3 replacement)

Like G. Kuo, I use it as Prusa replacement. I very much regret it. Unlike G. Kuo, the fan runs regularly, which is unacceptable for my printer in the living room. However, the voltage is fairly stable (measured 70mV ripple on the output during printing). I bought an alternative unit (though at a significantly higher price) the UHP-500R-24, which doesn't have a fan, so it's guaranteed to be quiet. If I could return it I would, but I bought it a long time ago and only now had time to reassemble the case/replace the PSU only to find a noise issue.

Pros
  • Dream come true
Cons
  • Modern
