Review conclusionWith reservationsRecommended

Only in one review: Protection 34 A (5 V 30 A power supply (150 W)).

5 V 30 A power supply (150 W): Delivers about 75% of its rated power; ripple is acceptable, but the inductor and diode assembly overheat.

CTG-150W-12V: It sustains rated power, has low ripple, and offers useful headroom at reduced input voltage.

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.
