Review on ⚡️ Siglent SPD3303X-E Triple Output Power Supply: Maximizing Efficiency and Versatility by Johnny Pigao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good power supply, terrible software!

Power supply works but the software is terrible. Mine arrived with firmware 1.01.01.02.03, the current version on the Siglent website is 1.01.01.02.05. - You need to download almost 700MB of software and drivers (NI-Visa) to control it via USB or LAN. - To download the required NI visa, you must create an account on the National Instrument website. - After installation, NI-Visa will download a 300MB update! - No Mac OS support (nothing found on Siglent website) - For software it takes up more than a gigabyte of disk space and installs development software and services that regular users never need. That's a lot to adjust voltage and current or update firmware. - The management software disables Windows Fast Boot by default. - Update possible via LAN or USB. , but to connect via LAN you have to enter the IP address manually, the network does not recognize it and the IP address is forgotten, every time you need to enter it to connect to the power supply - Uninstalling the Software will not remove all installed software d, you must remove them manually.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • For pensioners
