[QUOTE="Kangaroux, post: 8304948, member: 628495"] I picked up a couple of these a while back just for s[COLOR=black]hi[/COLOR]ts and honestly it works great. It's no where near as adjustable as nicer bench supplies but it has voltage adjustment (I was running mine at 14.4v but I think it goes all the way up to 16-18v). At $30 for 30A you are paying for 12w/dollar...not too bad. They don't get hot even if they are running at full capacity and there should be no issues wiring up multiple power supplies in parallel if you need more power. All you need to hook it up is a 3 prong power cord (the thicker the cable the better) and attach the hot/ground/neutral to the PSU.
