Only in one review: Ripple 280 mV (5 V 25 W power supply).

5 V 25 W power supply: Decent overall, but diode overheating limits it to 4 A for continuous use.

HCF-24L: Efficiency is slightly higher than the 18 W model; ripple is considered acceptable, but electrical safety is poor.

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.
