Smaller, cheaper, and more watts / amps than the one above. The guy also has higher wattage supplies and USB ports of you look at his other auctions.

QDRHRSE is on to something here... looking at the supply he provided... if you can solder or are at all mechanically inclined and can add a sticker wrap, these are just rack mounted server power supplies. Heck, most of them may have the 5v output and you could add a couple or USB tags to it.

Not much to it: new toepush PS

12V 900W $55 shipped

Easily powers both channels at 40A on 2S (~672W). Nicely wrapped and quiet. Just big enough to set a 406DUO on.

toe in order to get the 40 amps you need 18volts +..best to use a 24v..Id just build your own .either with 2 12v computer server supplies .or 2-12v atx comp ps..

from progressive site.. Maximum charge power: 1400W at >23.5V (1000W max. per channel)

Discharging does not draw amps from the power supply.

Thanks. I only ask cause I'm new to this regenative discharge thing. I have a 40 amp bank I set up to do a 30 amp discharge and I can only get to 20.5 amps.

That's at 6S though. Far as I can tell toe is a driver and that means he's probably running 2S or 4S. Even charging 4S at 40A you'll only consume ~672W per channel.

You really start to 'need' 24V once you start working with higher voltage batteries.
