Review conclusionWith reservationsWith reservations

Only in one review: Voltage 24 V (24 V 60 W power supply); Current 5 A (HCA-60); In test 62 W (24 V 60 W power supply); Test current 5 A (HCA-60); Under load 23.35 V (24 V 60 W power supply); Ripple 700 mV (HCA-60); Efficiency 84.5 % (HCA-60); Protection 5.4 A (HCA-60).

HCA-60: Ripple is high, but temperatures are better than on the HCA-48; the author puts its practical output at about 50 W.

24 V 60 W power supply: The DIY supply worked after fixes, but initially handled repeated load swings poorly until the optocoupler circuit was modified.

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.
