Only in one review: Under load 23.5 V (24 V 5 A power supply); Protection 5.1 A (12 V 5 A power supply).

12 V 5 A power supply: Low ripple and good temperatures at 5 A; synchronous rectification reduces heat, and protection is set close to the rating.

24 V 5 A power supply: It handled loads up to 6 A, but has high ripple and needs modification.
