Review conclusionWith reservationsRecommended

Only in one review: Voltage 12 V (PTA-120W-12V); Power 120 W (PTA-120W-12V); Test current 11 A (PTA-120W-12V); Under load 57.5 V (LRC-60-1050); Power factor 0.99 (LRC-60-1050).

PTA-120W-12V: A decent budget supply for undemanding uses, but it has high low-frequency ripple and low input capacitance.

LRC-60-1050: It regulates current well and handles heat, moisture and high input voltage, but its startup is slow.

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.
