Only in one review: Under load 52 V (RK6018); Ripple 35 mV (RK6018); Protection 4 A (RK6018); Price 57 $ (RK6018).

RK6018: High efficiency, low losses and ripple; the author dislikes the odd behavior of SCP.

RD6018P: A powerful hybrid converter with good accuracy and improved efficiency, but notable losses and heat.
