Review conclusionWith reservationsWith reservations

Only in one review: Voltage 24 V (24 V 2 A power supply); Ripple 190 mV (HCA-48); Efficiency 83 % (HCA-48); Protection 4.5 A (HCA-48).

HCA-48: It sags substantially under load and overheats; the author considers about 36 W its practical maximum.

24 V 2 A power supply: Well-built with low ripple, but it overheats at its advertised rating and is unsuitable for prolonged use.

Figures were taken from the review text and checked against the quoted passages. Measurement conditions differ between reviews, so read the reviews yourself before buying. Prices at the time of review.
