Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't hold a steady voltage.

First thing to be warned when you first turn this on it starts up straight to the maximum 32V. Definitely make sure you're not starting with anything plugged in to it (this really should start at 5V or the last set voltage). My real complaint however is that it won't hold a voltage steady the tuning controls are impossible to set accurately. I spent a good minute or two setting it precisely to 5.00V only to see it constantly bounce between 4.99V and 5.01V after being set and not touched.

Pros
  • The built-in overcurrent and short-circuit protection ensures safe and reliable operation, protecting both the equipment and user
Cons
  • The power supply is too large and takes up too much desk space

Didn't last best in my review

Bought this back in July and put it away until I had time to use it. Turned on out of the box but went dead. No problem, went through the trouble shooting and found it had a blown fuse. This happens, how ever got a replacement fuse and it killed that one too. Rechecked everything and turned it to a mid level setting the put another fuse in and the same thing. Guess I learned to check things right when I get them.

Pros
  • High-definition display
Cons
  • The power supply is not very versatile and can only be used for certain applications

There's a lot to like about this compact bench power supply. The only real nitpick I have are the standard alligator clips supplied with the device. They are the slippery rubber kind that make making connections more tedious than it needs to be. You'll do well to get yourself a higher quality set. I recommend the following leads kit, and you'll truly LOVE the included alligator clips: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GNVFL5D.

Pros
  • Does what you need it to. There is a small whine under load, but that's to be expected.
Cons
  • The power supply has a tendency to overheat

Works as expected - my new review

The unit has being working non stop for the last 4 months. Everything works as expected. One tiny annoyance is that it sounds like it has an internal cooling fun, which occasionally will start revving up. Not too bad, but is noticeble in the quiet room.

Pros
  • No problems works just fine
Cons
  • The power supply is not energy efficient and wastes a lot of electricity

Not to bad for the price.

I tested the voltage and current out of this with my Fluke meter, which I would expect to be not to bad, and it was spot on to what the read out was showing.I find adjusting the values to be very sluggish, but im in no hurry, and after a few times operating it, you get used to it and can dial in a value fast enough.I dont like the inability to adjust the current limit until there is an actual load on though. I just shorted the leads and adjusted, then applied the power.I dont have a way to test

Pros
  • Lab Instruments & Equipment
Cons
  • The power supply is not very intuitive and requires a lot of trial and error to operate

Broken and Used! good for me

I had great expectations but the power supply arrived broke and used!. The display only show (c.v) nothing else and you can see the screws were previously removed. This is going back!

Pros
  • The included user manual and customer service support provide assistance and guidance, ensuring a smooth and effortless user experience
Cons
  • The power supply is not very compact and can be difficult to store

It worked just fine.

I ran this power supply at full wattage for 12 hours without a hitch on an important project I had to get done. It is easy to use and understand. It looks professional and worked as advertised. Best Buy delivered it quickly. 5 Stars.

Pros
  • Power Supplies
Cons
  • The voltage output of this product is not consistent

A better power supply.

Excellent lab power supply. Precision multi-turn control knobs, high-resolution readout and, unlike many other supplies, it can sustain full power output without overheating.

Pros
  • Constant voltage and constant current mode automatic conversion
Cons
  • The power supply consumes too much power and can increase electricity bills

Works perfect and accurate. Shipping on time.

The packing is very good, shipping on time. This DC Power Supply is perfect for beginner/intermediate circuitry. The display is very accurate as well. Overall it’s a very great deal.

Pros
  • The comprehensive protection mechanisms ensure high reliability and minimal downtime, reducing maintenance costs
Cons
  • The LED display is not very accurate and can be misleading
