Review on Pyramid PS14KX.5 Universal Compact Bench Power Supply: 12 Amp AC-to-DC Converter with 13.8V DC Output and 270W Power Input by John Hattalli

Revainrating 4 out of 5

High quality design, large heatsinks.

Should have put in a spare fuse or used a circuit breaker instead of a fuse. 5A fuse for 12A supply (odd). The fuse says PL5A 250V. Good for many car devices for home use. I'm resetting the fuse now. I like longer power cords, but that's fine as it's common in the competitive market. If you're using an extension cord, make sure its cord is at least 12 AWG, not sixteen, and possibly 10 AWG if your run is longer than seven feet. Another odd thing is that the back of the device says 4AMP. The size I've listed is a view of the fuse originally installed.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Vulgarity
