I used my cba to pull current thru it increasing until it finally kicked off. Backed it down and then increased. I thik it was 25 amps or so. I know I wrote it down, would have to go look it up.

I think it was supposed to be a 360 watt, but wrote 300 useable watts on the box. It did a nice job of maintaining voltage. I figured for $20 it was still a decent deal.

I would say so, 20 bucks sounds good to me. Hopefully the unit I just bought will work. I can sell my other power supply, and free up some room on the bench...

So they mislabeled the box?
