5 V 200 W passive power supply or 48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model)

Two models side by side: measurements taken by the author in their reviews, and their conclusions. The better value in each row is highlighted.

In brief: Based on review measurements: Ripple: 48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model) (60 mV vs. 170); Efficiency: 48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model) (88.5 % vs. 80); Temperature rise: 48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model) (78 °C vs. 135).

Review conclusionNot recommendedWith reservations

Only in one review: Voltage 48 V (48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model)); In test 160 W (48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model)); No load 0.75 W (48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model)).

5 V 200 W passive power supply: It overheats at full power; upgrading is uneconomical, and ripple is substantial.

48 V, 4.1 A, 200 W (standard model): Well built and efficient, but the author puts its realistic continuous power at about 150 W.

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.
