Only in one review: Current 45 A (RBQ-8,2/45); In test 300 W (RBQ-8,2/45); Under load 8.163 V (RBQ-8,2/45); Ripple 400 mV (25A 600W voltage converter); No load 4 W (RBQ-8,2/45); Protection 26 A (25A 600W voltage converter); Price 3.12 $ (RBQ-8,2/45).

25A 600W voltage converter: An inexpensive converter with good efficiency, but high ripple and overheating shunts at 25 A.

RBQ-8,2/45: A genuine converter with high efficiency and high output current; at room temperature it can deliver 15–16 A without extra cooling.
