RL Power Supplies

I second this.
I think it’s the cheapest you’ll find these retrofitted $25 power supplies for haha.

I went with the mini for my 406.

power supply?

Icharger power supply

question about this power supply for a new 406 charger

Charger Power Supplies

Picking up a good quality PSU

And many more topics to be found......

Thanks for all the info!

it really depends on how must power you want your icharger 406 to have. The icharger needs a 24volt power supply to get the maximum rated power out of it. But 90% of all racers just use a standard $30 12 volt computer server converted power supply to power their i chargers. The 12 volt power supply is the cheepest option but will only give the i charger about 500ish watts of power which should be enough for most 2-4cell charging needs .

If you only need 12V, RL is good to go. Michaels Hobbies in FLA sells an exact version of it too.

If you want something premade, RL is fine, but they definitely are pricing their power supplies very high. Here is what they are using

If you are comfortable soldering bullets, you can just do that, plus short 2 pins to make it power on when plugged in, and you'll have the same exact power supply as RL for 1/5 of the price...

Those server power supplies, that are linked, are sold out, but can be found at the usual places. I picked one up new, years ago on Amazon, for something like $15. Simplest (IMO) power supply to covert... one soldered jumper wire needed to be able to turn on unit.

I use 2 of the hp server to make 24v. No issues in using 1 or 2 chargers off of it.

Do you have a repo for the 3d printed caps?

I am going to need to get one of those made for mine, look pretty cool.

Ordered one off eBay gonna give it a try.

One, or two other designs of a HP 750W server power supply cover...

They look cool, wish I could grab the files for them.
