Only in one review: Current 1 A (48 V 1 A power supply); Ripple 40 mV (48 V 1 A power supply); Protection 1.1 A (48 V 1 A power supply).

12 V 50 W power supply: It failed during testing at 115 V; protection is set too high and output capacitance is insufficient.

48 V 1 A power supply: The supply delivers about 25 W continuously and up to 45–50 W briefly; the author liked it.

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.
